Clean up your Master Shell

Person buried by folders asking for help

Back to Faculty Resource List PDF

If you use a sandbox, or master shell to hold course material to copy into another course shell, make sure to clean it out. You will want to review your Assignments, Discussions, Quizzes, and Pages tab and delete any material you do not need. You can accidentally copy over duplicates of the same page to your next year's course if you do not de-clutter your master shell. This can get confusing mid term as you notice the duplicates.

Don't forget to:

Go to each tab and delete duplicates or items you no longer need.

- Discussion Tab
- Quiz Tab
- Pages Tab
- Assignments Tab-
  - Reminder: you will see all assignments worth points on the Assignment Page. Do not delete discussions or quizzes form here, only from their specific tab. This will help you keep from deleting an item you actually want to keep.
