Steps to backup your Moodle course:

• Go to the “Administration” section of your Moodle home page. Click the “+” sign if the Administration field is closed.

• Click “backup”

• Uncheck any box of an item you do not want in your backup. Unless you want to keep all of your students work, you will probably want to uncheck the data boxes.

• Metacourse should say “no,” unless you made your course a metacourse when you first created it.

• If you don’t want user data, click “none”.

• Click “Yes” or “No” for Logs depending on whether or not you want to keep data in Logs.

• Click “Yes” or “No” for User depending on whether or not you want to keep data in User Files.

• Click “Yes” or “No” for Course files depending on whether or not you want to keep data in Course files.

• Review all fields you have checked or unchecked, then click “Continue”.

• A verification page will be displayed for you to review. Once complete, click “Continue”.

• Another verification page will be displayed of all items being backed up. Once complete, click “Continue”.

• Check the appropriate box on the left side of page. This will be the data you are backing up. Then click “Upload a File”.

• Once you have completed this, the Course will be backed up on the Moodle server.
