Converting Moodle Lessons
Using the Import/Export/Copy Course Components tool in Brightspace, you can edit an existing course and upload an unconverted Moodle Lessons course package.
During the course conversion process, entries from the IMSManifest.xml file are converted and imported into the Content tool as topics and files, placed into a content module named Imported Lessons. Each topic displays a Lesson: prefix to indicate that the topic is a converted Moodle Lesson.
