Creating student groups makes it simpler to manage a list of students. To create student groups:
1. Go to the course you are planning to create groups in.
2. Go to "Users and Groups" on the bottom left, and select "Groups."
3. Click on "Create".
From here, you can enroll students in groups in three ways (Students can't unenroll themselves from groups):Manual Enroll allows you to assign each student in your course to a group. Manual enrollment is available for both single groups and group sets.
Random Enroll is available for group sets only. Random enrollment automatically distributes students into groups based on your settings for maximum members per group or total number of groups. Random distribution applies only to students who are currently enrolled in your course. You can enroll additional students manually.Self-Enroll allows students to add themselves to a group with a sign-up sheet. Self-enrollment is an option available for both single groups and group sets.
We will focus on the most commonly used one in this article: Single Group - Manual Enroll.
4. After clicking "Manual Enroll", name your group.
5. Tick the box for creating Smart View for the group, and click "Add Users".
6. Select the students you would like to be in this group, and then click "Submit".
7. You can then remove some students by clicking on the cross symbols on the right, or "Submit" to finish creating the group.
