How to Copy All Components
In order to copy from one eCampus course to another:
- Log in to eCampus at https://ecampusd2l.blinn.edu/d2l/home
- Access the course to copy material into
- Click the Edit Course link in the blue navigation bar
- Click the Import/Export/Copy Components link
- Click the Search for Offering button
- Type the course to copy from in the Search Textbox
- Click the Search button
- This search is very specific. If you are having trouble searching for the course that you want to copy from try copying the title of the course you want to copy, then return and past it into the search box. You may also try searching for the semester and then browse the list of results and select the appropriate course.
- Make sure you are searching for the course you want to copy from and that you are in the course you want to copy into. If you search for the course you are currently in, it will not appear.
- Select the course to copy from
- Click the Add Selected button
- Click the Copy All Components
- If the course being copied has been copied into the current course before, you may be prompted to confirm that you want to copy again. If so, then click the blue Yes button.
After completing these steps the Instructor will be placed on a Copy Course Components History page with a loading bar. Once the copy process is complete, the loading bar will be replaced with a check box. This process may take several minutes to complete depending on the amount of material that needs to be copied. It is ok to navigate away from the course at this point. The instructor can return to this page by clicking the View History link on the Import/Export/Copy Components page.
