After a course copy or course import is complete, it is highly recommended that the following steps are completed.
This guide outlines instructions for Ultra Course View. If you are using Original Course View, please see the guide for what to do after a course copy in Original.
All course shells at UToledo are defaulted to Original Course View until Summer 2025. Ultra content can only be copied to another Ultra course shell. Continuing Ultra instructors will need to contact UToledo Online to have your course shell converted to Ultra.

Remove Unwanted Discussion Board Posts

Check External Links and Embeds
Check all external links and embedded HTML content to ensure that the links are still functional.
Adjust Course Settings
Turn off student visibility for the Roster if you have students who are marked as confidential. You can also use the Roster tool to add TA's and/or additional instructors and set up student time accommodations.
You can also use Course Settings to disable Collaborate and/or Messages if you do not use those tools in your course.
The Messages tool in Ultra now allows all messages to also be sent as emails. If you disable Messages, you will not be able to email the entire class (though you can still email individual members through the Roster or the Gradebook). You could still post Announcements and check the box to send an email of the announcement; however, it would be a "do not reply" email.
