I teach 4 sections of the same course and use a metacourse as the respository for materials used in the 4 sections. What I did was create the resource in the metacourse and then link that resource to the sections.

For instance, I created a web page in the metacourse that included course notes. These course notes are in the form of 17 pdf files. The web page has links to the 17 files that were uploaded to the metacourse. Thus, the files and the web page that students will use to get to the files all exist in the metacourse. Next I created a link to the web page in my normal courses. To do this I had to execute the web page in the metacourse and copy the address from my browser into the link I created in the normal course.

When the student is in the normal section course, they simply click on the link and the web page in the metacourse appears. There are several advantages to using metacourses in this way.
