You can migrate all course content except student work to a new Canvas site. Be aware that you will need to adjust due dates, etc. This will recreate your assignments, forums, and many other tools in your Canvas site. You can also use this method more than once to add additional course content to a Canvas site later. For most content, use the Common Cartridge method below. For Tests & Quizzes, you will also have to download a QTI file and upload this file into Canvas. Please be aware that hyperlinks to external websites cannot be downloaded or migrated. You will need to recreate these in Canvas separately. 

Common Cartridge Method

  1. Log in to your CLEo site and navigate to Site Info.
  2. Click the Manage Tools tab and make sure "Lessons" is checked. Add the Lessons tool.
  3. On the sidebar Menu, go to the Lessons tool.
  4. Click Other Tools > Export CC > Use newest version and then download the file. 
  5. Go to your Canvas course where you want to upload the CLEo course content. 
  6. Click Settings on the course left sidebar menu, then Import Course Content on the right sidebar menu.
  7. Set the content type to Common Cartridge, choose the file you just downloaded from CLEo, and import. You're done!
  8. You will probably want to delete the empty "Lesson" module on your Canvas course main page now.

Tests & Quizzes cannot be migrated using Common Cartridge, so you will need to download an additional file to migrate them. On your Tests & Quizzes page in CLEo, use the Action dropdown menu and choose "Export" to generate the QTI file that can be imported into Canvas. The import process is the same as for Common Cartridge (see above), except that you will choose QTI as your content type

Other Tips

  • You can also upload content into Google Drive and access your Google Drive from within Canvas.
  • We recommend storing video and audio in Google Drive for superior media streaming. 
  • Save your syllabus in the Resources folder if you wish to migrate it. The Syllabus tool in CLEo cannot be moved directly to Canvas.
