As an instructor, you can send modules in your course to other instructors at your institution. You can also <u>[copy a module into another course](https://instructure.vanillacommunities.com/en/kb/articles/660892-how-do-i-copy-a-module-to-another-course)</u> as well as <u>[send individual module items to other instructors](https://instructure.vanillacommunities.com/en/kb/articles/660895-how-do-i-send-a-module-item-to-another-instructor)</u>. 

When you share a module, any assets within that module (images, files, etc.) will be included in the shared file. Module settings are also included in the shared module.
