Duplicate a course in iTunes U for web
As the owner of a course, you can choose Duplicate Course from the Settings pop-up menu in the dashboard to copy an existing self-paced course to either a new self-paced course or a new in-session course or to copy an existing in-session course to either a new in-session course or a new self-paced course.
When duplicating a course, iTunes U creates a new course using the info pages, posts, and materials from the original course. iTunes U does not copy over the student roster.

For any posts or announcements in the original course, iTunes U copies the posts or announcements to the Posts | Drafts pane for you to review and edit before posting. Posts in the Posts | Drafts pane are not visible to your students until you post them in the new course. In addition, because all posts in a self-paced course must be associated with a topic in your course outline, you cannot save or post announcements in the Posts | Drafts pane until you associate them with an outline topic in the new course. If the original in-session course did not contain an outline, you must create an outline before you can review and edit the posts or announcements in the new self-paced course.
Select In-Session, specify the start and end dates for your course, then click Duplicate.
By default, if the original course start date is today or in the future, iTunes U uses the same dates. If the original course start date is in the past, iTunes U sets the start date to today and calculates the end date based on the original course.
