+== 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  ==
-a) 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'''''.
+[[File:Collections in Resources.png|thumbnail|none]]
+* Name the collection "2021-2022 Schoology Courses", and click '''''Create'''''.
+[[File:Name and create new.jpg|thumbnail|none]] <br clear="all">
+== Step 2 - Save your old Course Materials to Resources ==
+*Navigate to your Schoology home page.
+*Click '''''Courses''''' in the top menu.
+*Then click '''''My Courses''''' in the top-right corner of the screen.
+*Click the '''''Archived''''' tab.
+[[File:How_to_search_for_your_courses.jpg|thumbnail|none]]
+* You will now see every course you've ever had in Schoology.
+* Click into the Course you want to save to your resources.
+* Click the '''''Options''''' button (just to the right of the '''''Add Materials''''' button), and Select '''''Save Course to Resources'''''.
+[[File:Save to Resources.jpg|thumbnail|none]]
+* In the first drop-down menu, select the desired collection ("2018-2019 Schoology Courses", for example.)
-b) Click the file cabinet icon to create a new Collection.
+== Step 3 - Editing your Course Materials from Resources ==
-[[File:Collections in Resources.png|350px]]
+Edit Resources
-c) Name the collection "2016-2017 Schoology Courses", and click "Create".
+There is a Gear Icon to the right of every resource. The Gear Icon allows you to Edit, Move, Copy, or Delete a resource.
-[[File:Adding a Collection.jpg|350px]]
+#'''''Edit'''''—This option allows you to change the title of your resource, as well as to add notes that will only appear in your Resources.
+#'''''Copy to'''''—This option allows you to "copy and paste" the resource into another location in your Resources.
+#'''''Move to'''''—This option allows you to "cut and paste" the resource into another location in your Resources.
+#'''''Delete'''''—This option allows you to delete the resource from your Resources. This action cannot be undone.
-== Step 2 - Save Course Materials to Resources ==
+== Step 4 - Adding Material from Resources into your new (2022-2023) Courses ==
-a) Go to your course’s home page.
+First, navigate to your new course. (Note, 2021-2022 Courses won't be available until end of August 2021.) Then follow these directions to add old course material:
-* Note: If the grading period has ended, you can access an archived course by following these steps:
-# Click "Courses" in the top menu.
-# Select "See All" in the bottom-right corner.
-# Select "Archived" to see a complete list of archived courses sorted by grading period.
-b) Click Options, and Select Save Course to Resources.
