In Faculty Access for the Web, you can copy categories, assignments, and non-assignment documents from one academic year, session, marking column, and class to one or more classes.
You can copy:
| • | From classes in one academic year to another academic year |
| • | From classes in the same academic year |
| • | From one marking column to another |
For assignments, if you copy from and to the same marking column (even in different academic years) date fields copy. Review and edit assignment dates after you copy.
If grading scales are associated with the categories you copy, we recommend you copy the grading scales first. The Copy grading scales and weights task copies grading scale associations, not the actual grading scales. The program copies a grading scale association only if a grading scale with the same name exists for the year copied to.
If you are one of multiple teachers who teach the same class, to avoid confusion, only one teacher should set up and verify the grading scales for the next academic year before you copy categories.
When you copy categories and assignments, a category does not copy if a category with the same name already exists in the marking column and class copied to. An assignment does not copy if it is associated with a category not present in the marking column and class copied to, or if an assignment with the same name in the same category already exists in the marking column and class copied to. However, if a selected category does not copy because a duplicate category exists, the category’s assignments can still copy.
