How to import material from one Moodle classroom to another (in the same academic course)

Remember that you need to have created the classroom where to import the contents.

If the classroom to be imported has a format other than Format by topics it is important, before proceeding with the import,to make sure that the destination classroom has the same structure as the source classroom. That is, they match the format (by topics, by weeks…) and also with the number of items (weeks/topics) to display. These options are accessible from the link “Settings” of the course.
If the structure does not match, the material will still be imported but it will appear out of order in the destination classroom.
