Retrieving a learning object as a new topic

If course content exists from previous offerings, you can import it from an LOR. You can import the content in several ways:

Create a dynamic link to the object which always uses the latest version of the object, regardless of changes made to the learning object after you create the link.
Create a locked link from content, which links to the version of the learning object at the time you create the link. Changes to the learning object after the link is created are not reflected in your course.
Import the object into the Content tool. This creates a copy of all the files associated with the learning object within your course file folder.

Note You cannot import files for objects such as harvested metadata, only the links to those objects.

Add a learning object or asset

On My Home or your course homepage, click Content on the navbar.
On the Manage Content page, click Add Learning Object from the Add Content button.
Click Search to find the learning object you want to add to content.
On the Search Results page, choose the learning object you want to add to content and click Next.
On the Retrieve Object page, choose whether you want to create a dynamic or locked link to the learning object in content, or whether you want to create a copy of it. Click Next.
Select a Parent Module from the drop-down list, or select None.
If you are importing the course file and the destination folder listed is not the one you want, click Choose Destination to select a new folder.
Click Import / Create Link.
