October - Is Source Course content changes automatically updated to associated courses?
Hi all. We are trying out the new Source Courses functionality. It seems that an assocation between a source course and course offering (re-offered or deployed) does not mean that any changes afterwards in the source course content will automatically happen in the course offer too. Does it? There is not mentioning of this feature in the Source Course documentation, as far as I can see.
Or have I missed something? That is my question. Can any one confirm what is possible when updating source courses, and if dynamic update is possible, how to achieve it. Thank you :-)

Hello @Birgitte.B.96,
Thank you for reaching out in the Brightspace Community.
Currently, there is no automatic or dynamic update from a Source Course to its associated course offerings after the offering is created. Updates must be manually applied.
Kindly refer to the following article for more information

Hi Shobhit, thank you for clarifying. I read the article, and I just wanted to be sure. With LOR in mind, and probably also influenced by what Create Space/Media Library can do now, I thought there might be a similar option for Source Course. Now I know for sure that there is not. Thank you. Kind regards, Birgitte
