Moodle in English: Create Once

I am fairly new to moodle, so I am sure the solution is staring me in the face.

I want to create one module (let's say a Choice module) and then have it show up in all 10 of my classes. Is there way to do that?

To see all 10 of my classes feel free to visit www.hmstechnology.com/moodle.

Your answer is greatly appreciated,

Phil

Phil,

You might try creating it in one of your courses and then backup that course (including only that item - I think this can be done) then restoring that course into one of the others that you want.

I believe you should be able to add your "choice" created once to many courses.

If I tried that, I am afraid I would break something.

Yes, while in editing mode I believe there should be a way to copy and paste an assignment, or duplicate it to another class.

Maybe someday.

Thanks for your help,

Phil

Moodle is tough to "break."

It might be worth creating a test course and do all your copying (restoring) into it.

Just a thought.

Jeff

Jeff,

That is a very good thought.

Thank you. I will definitely do this.

Phil

Or, the other way round, you could import the one choice into the target course(s) from the source course.

Paul,

Where can I LEARN more about how to do this.

I have 10 courses, and I am going nuts creating the same thing 10 times!!!

Thank you,

Phil

If you are using version 1.8 or 1.9, then do the following:

1. Log into the course you want to import something into

2. Click "Import" under the course admin block

3. Select the course to import from and press "Use this course"

Then rest should be pretty self-explanatory...just follow the prompts.

Wow! I get it! You have saved me many hours over the course of a week.

Thank you,

Phil
