Dividing students into cohort

[LoriGoldstein]

So, I'm about to start with a new group of students, while the existing group is still working on some assignments.  Can I create a new cohort of students in my course to keep them separate?  Or do I just need create a new course for this cohort by copying the old course?  Thanks!

@LoriGoldstein ...

I would recommend having a separate course shell for your new cohort of students.  That way, you can keep the two groups of students separate.  And, you can then import the content from one course into the other course using this Guide:

• How do I copy content from another Canvas course using the Course Import tool?

Hope this helps!
