Several users (teachers) in our school miss the possibility to export the complete folder structure for a given Course.
The only way to export anything from it's learning by now, is this IMS-format, which has a very specific usage.
We suggest a new "Operation" (see attached screen shot) to be implemented. It could f.i. be called "Export to fileystem", or "Export to local machine" or the like.
When this operation is chosen by the user, a "Choose file" dialog box could appear, letting user select where on the local filesystem (or mounted network disks) he/she want the structure to be copied.
All necessary folders should then be created in order to reflect the folder hierarcy in the Course in it's learning.
It should be considered if this functionality should be limited to "owners" of the Course, i. e. teachers (and users with higher ranking)
The Export function should also be availible in Projects.
