How does course cloning work?
There are two types of course clones: shallow clone and deep clone.
Types of cloning
Course only ("shallow clone") | The course is cloned but the modules are not cloned. Editing the modules will edit the modules in any courses in which they appear. |
Course plus modules ("deep clone") | The course and the modules are cloned. Editing the modules will only affect this course. |
Course plus modules, replace problems ("deep clone plus") | Same as a deep clone, but it also marks all the problems as "needs replacing". |
