Master Courses
How to create a master course template and copy it to a new semester
Open the dashboard
Create a new class
Fill in class details
Save the class
Open the new class
Click Edit to open class settings
The Edit Class dialog allows you to modify your class settings, including the class name and description. Most importantly, you can check the "Master Course" box to convert your class into a reusable template that can be copied for future semesters, and optionally share it with other instructors by enabling "Share as Global Master."
Enable master course
The master course checkbox is enabled, which allows this course template to be copied to new semesters with all assignments intact. A tooltip explains that master courses can be duplicated for future use, and there's an additional option to share the master course globally with other teachers.
Save the class as a master
Return to dashboard to see the master course
After copying a course, you'll be redirected back to the dashboard where the loading screen appears. The master courses will now display as distinct cards on your dashboard, making it easy to differentiate them from regular course sections.
Copy the course
A dialog box has opened with the title "Copy Course" and is currently loading asset counts before allowing you to proceed. Once loading completes, you'll be able to click "Create Copy" to duplicate the selected master course, which will then appear in your Active Classes section for the current semester.
