You can share content from your Canvas course with other Canvas users without exporting / importing. As an instructor, you can send modules in your course to other instructors at your institution. You can also copy a module into another course as well as send individual module items to other instructors.
Important Note:
It is critical to be aware of FERPA guidelines before sharing module items or course content that might contain FERPA-protected information such as student names, images, etc. This is especially important if you are considering sharing course videos that may contain student names and images - such as those recorded during the pandemic. These types of videos MAY NOT be 1) copied into other classes, even where you are the instructor, 2) sent to other instructors, students, or post-docs, or 3) made visible to the public.
