Students are able to select their own groups through the use of the Group Selection activity. You must first set up the structure of your groups and a grouping before adding your group selection.

 

To set up a group selection:

1. Click Turn editing on.
2. Go to the week/topic where you wish to add the group selection to.
3. Click Add an activity or resource and select Group selection.
4. Click Add.
5. Enter a Name for the group.
6. Enter an Introduction.
7. Enter a value for Default max members. This is the maximum number of students that can enrol for the group, and must be more than one.
8. The remaining options can be left as the defaults for setting up a basic group selection. Click on Save and return to unit or Save and Display to preview your group selection.
9. The following is an example preview of a group selection after students have self-enrolled into groups.
