What do I do with my Moodle course when it is finished and I want to run it again in the next academic session?
The first thing you must decide is whether or not the user information that is stored in your old course is worth keeping (for your department, for your students, for the sake of records, etc.) Often when a Moodle course has had interactive components such as quizzes, forums, etc., then it is a good idea to allow students to have continued access to this information after the course ends. If this is the case for you, then there is a backup and restore feature in Moodle that will allow you to make a copy of your course that is clean (ie. without user data, but keeping all the content you have created). Typically, Moodle Administrators will create a category called Archive on your Moodle site and you can request that they move your older copy of the course into that category, leaving your newly restored course where it was. If, however, you do not wish to keep an archive of the course, there is also a course reset feature that removes users and user content from your course (NOTE: UNTICK
