Backup and save Webcourses@UCF course

Note: If you ever need to see a backup of an old course, ask Course Development and Web Services to create a temporary course and restore the backup for you. This process is handy if, for example, you need to defend a student's grade even years after the course has finished.

As part of your computer risk management program, make periodic backups of the course. You can only save one backup within Webcourses@UCF, so it is best to download the backups to your computer. A backup is an encrypted, zipped file and will need to be restored to the course to view it. As an alternative, you may choose to only backup student data (grades, discussions, chats, etc.). These can be compiled and downloaded to your computer.
