At Toddle, we’re always working to help you plan more efficiently and collaborate meaningfully with your colleagues. You can easily reuse units and tasks from previous academic years, other courses, or the Toddle library, directly within the course plan of your class. This helps you save time, maintain consistency, and build on past work.

Edit an imported unit or task

Import a unit or task

You can import units/tasks into your course plan from three sources:

Another course

School library

Toddle library

All imports must be done from the + Add button in your course plan. Once imported, you can fully customize the units/tasks to suit your current class and teaching goals.

Note: Changes made to imported units or tasks do not affect the original versions in their source.

⁠

⁠

From another course

You can reuse units and other course content from previous or parallel courses - even from different academic years - by importing them directly into your current course plan.

Note: You can only import from courses that you are associated with.

To begin, click on ‘+ Add’ from the course plan and select ‘Another course’ under the ‘Import from’ section

⁠

⁠

Select course:

Use the filter panel to refine your search by:

Status – Active or archived

Course type – Blueprint or teacher courses

Grade – Select one or more grade levels

Subject – Filter by subject taught

Academic year – Choose from available school years

Use the search bar to find a specific course

Select the course that contains the content you want to reuse

Click ‘Next’

⁠

⁠

Select items:

You can import complete units as well as individual items such as learning experiences, assessments, links, and notes.

Selecting a unit or folder does not automatically select its contents - each item must be checked individually. For example, if you select a unit, its learning experiences or tasks will not be included unless you check them one by one.

Click Import to add the selected content to your course plan.

To streamline the process of selecting multiple items within a unit or folder, you can utilize the Shift + Click shortcut.

Bulk Selection: By holding down the Shift key and clicking the checkbox of a parent item (such as a Unit or Folder), you will instantly select that item along with all of its children or sub-items located within its hierarchy.

Bulk Deselection: This action functions as a toggle. If you hold Shift and click an already selected parent item, it will deselect the parent and all of its associated sub-items simultaneously.

From the School library

The School library gives you access to all the units and tasks created by you and your colleagues across academic years, subjects, and classes. You can import these into your course plan to reuse and adapt them for your current class. You can also import units from other schools within your organization that you have access to.

Note: All units and tasks created on Toddle are automatically saved to the School library.

Import a unit

To begin, click on:

+Add → School library→ Units

⁠

⁠

Click the filter icons at the top right of the School library view. Narrow your results based on school (including other schools in your organization that you have access to), academic year, course, grade, subject, creator, or unit type.

Use the search bar to locate a specific unit by title

Preview a unit’s content by clicking on it and selecting one or more units using the checkboxes

If you do not want to include reflections, check the ‘Exclude unit reflections’ box before proceeding

Note: All text-based reflections (from both teachers and students) are included by default unless excluded during import, while attachments such as images, videos, or other media are not imported; custom sections in the Reflections tab are also carried over if they contain text.

Once done, click Next.

⁠

⁠

Next, you can review and edit the details of the unit(s) you are importing. This includes updating the unit name and start and end dates. You can also remove any unit(s) from the list before importing using the delete icon next to it.

⁠

⁠

If you select units from another School, you will see additional columns to help you set them up for your current course.

Assign a unit template: Choose a template from those available in your current school. Note: Some data may not carry over due to differences in templates.

Select subject(s): Select the relevant subject(s) you would like to link the unit to. The dropdown list includes all subjects configured for the course.

Note: This column will be visible only if your school follows a subject-based setup

Once all details are finalised, click Import to add the unit(s) to your course plan.
