Duplicate Site is a link in Site Info. However, it is not for faculty use. It
allows System Administrators to make empty duplicate sites. However, the link
cannot be removed without making it unavailable to the Admins who can use it,
so for now, just ignore it. If you
click on Duplicate Site, you’ll get a message saying you don’t have permission
to perform the function.
Import from site (available under Site
Info) allows faculty to selectively import materials from one site that they
own to another. However, not all tools are supported. The following tools
support import: Announcements, Assignments, Resources.
The Syllabus tool does NOT support Import
from Site.
Melete and Tests & Quizzes don't support
import from site yet, but they both have import/export functionality that
allows you to move material from one site to another.
In the future - perhaps as early as summer,
instead of requesting site transfers, faculty will be getting blank sites for
follow-up terms, automatically, if they are on the schedule to teach with the
system. They will then be able to import whatever content they want,
selectively, from other sites they own.
