+== Why should I do this? ==
+In many cases, course resources can be re-used from year-to-year, and Schoology has a easy, organized way to do just that. To copy course content from one course into another (ex. for a new school year), you first need to archive it and then restore it. Saving a course to '''''My Resources''''' (archiving it) makes a snapshot of all the assignments, quizzes, discussions, pages, and resources in a particular course and allows you to import that content to other Schoology courses you might be creating.
+The general process is as follows:
+# Setup a new '''''Collection''''' to keep your resources organized
+# Save your old course materials to '''''My Resources'''''
+# Edit your course materials from '''''My Resources''''' if needed
+# Add Material from '''''My Resources''''' into your new Schoology courses
 == Step 1 - Setup a new Collection to keep your Resources Organized  ==
-* Click Resources in the top menu and then select Personal from the list.
+* Click '''''Resources''''' in the top menu and then select Personal from the list.
-* Click the file cabinet icon to create a new Collection.
+* Click the '''''file cabinet''''' icon to create a new '''''Collection'''''.

+[[File:Collections in Resources.png|thumbnail|none]]
-* Name the collection "2018-2019 Schoology Courses", and click "Create".
+* Name the collection "2021-2022 Schoology Courses", and click '''''Create'''''.

 == Step 2 - Save your old Course Materials to Resources ==

-# Deselect/uncheck the box for "Display current sections only".
