1. After logging in, go to the Course or Project Home<\/strong> the course you would like to clone. Beneath the course avatar you will see a button to Clone this Course<\/strong> (or Project).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step One: Course or Project Creation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. The Clone Existing<\/strong> radio button should be chosen by default, and the course you are cloning should be selected in the dropdown. If not, choose it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Choose the name for your course or project. This name will also be used to create the URL for the Course or Project Home. When you tab to or click the URL field, it will be automatically populated, based on the name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3. You can upload an avatar that reflects the subject or topic of your course or project, but this is not required. If you have an image file ready that you would like to use as your avatar, drag it into the Upload box, or click\u00a0Select your File<\/strong>. If you don\u2019t have an image now, you can always add one later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Add a required description. You can always add to or change this later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

5. Select your Sharing Settings<\/strong> – enabling shared cloning allows other faculty will be able to clone your course or project, allowing them to reuse, remix, transform, and build upon the material in the course or project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next three steps are for courses only:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. The Department<\/strong>(s) should be filled in already. You will need to add the term<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. You can add Additional Faculty<\/strong> by typing the name in the box, and selecting the name from the dropdown list that appears. This will add them to the course profile so they are listed as instructors.  Please note<\/strong>: To become admins for this course, these additional instructors must also join the course and be promoted to admin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. The Course Information<\/strong> – course code and section code – will already be filled in, but you can change these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

9. Finally, choose the privacy settings, then click Create and Continue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step Two: Associated Site Creation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Creating a course or project will also create an associated WordPress site. The URL, or web address, is what you see in the location bar of your browser. This will be automatically filled in, based on what you choose for the course name, but you can change this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Choose the privacy settings for the course or project site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3. Last are Member Role Settings<\/strong>. These settings determine what roles members will have on the associated site when new members join.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For most courses or projects, you will want to leave the settings as they are. You can also make changes to individual member roles in Membership settings and on the site Dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To change the role associated with a member, moderator, or administrator, choose the site role you want from the associated dropdown. You can find out more about each type of role by clicking on the Member Role and Site Member Role Definitions links.  Click Next Step<\/strong> at the bottom of the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Invite Members<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. If you would like to invite members to your course, start typing their display name.  When a dropdown list appears, select their name from the list.  Their name and avatar will appear under the heading Invites.  When you\u2019re finished, or if you do not wish to invite anyone at this time (you can always do it later!), click Finish<\/strong>, at the bottom of the page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    After you click Finish<\/strong> your course will be cloned, and you will be on the Course or Project Home<\/strong>. From here, you can change settings such as privacy, the course description, or the avatar.  You can also access your Course or Project Site and Dashboard (the admin panel, where you will edit and add content to your site).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please note:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • All posts and pages you created on the previous course site will be in draft form on the new site. You will need to publish them in order for them to appear on the site and be accessible to site members.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • If you had a custom menu it will be activated on the new site, but this can be edited at any time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Any posts you created in the Discussion forum, Docs you created, or Files you uploaded in the previous course will appear in the new course. You can keep these or delete any as necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The theme and header image will remain the same, although you may change these at any time.  In addition, any plugins or widgets you had activated on your old site will appear on the new site.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
