1. Enter a Group Title for the group.
2. Enter a Description of the group. (Optional)
3. Check the box for Allow members to see the other members of this group if you want students to be able to see the names of their group members.
4. You may use the Filter membership drop-down menu to filter the site member list by another group or section. For example, if you have two sections combined into one site, and you want to set up groups of students within sections, you could filter the view by section to make assigning students easier. (Note: You must have existing groups/sections for them to show up in this list.)
5. For Assignment Members, click to select students from a menu or begin typing the name of a student to narrow the choices. For students added that you want to remove, click the 'x' to the left of their name.

1. You will need to enter a Set name for the set of groups. Each group will begin with the same name and end with a unique number.
2. Indicate the Number of groups.
3. Enter the Max members per groups.
4. Click Add Set to create the joinable set.

Optionally, you may also select any of the following options:

• Allow users to see group membership before joining
• Allow members to see the other members of these groups after joining
• Allow members to unjoin (leave) groups in this set after joining

Note: Students will need access to Site Info to see and join any joinable sets of groups.

Select one or more roles from which you would like to create groups, and then click the Continue button.

Choose the sections to be included in your groups. If your site has no sections, then all site participants will be included.

First, you need to select if you want your groups to be created across roles and/or sections, or within roles and/or sections.

1. Select Create groups containing a random mixture of users with the selected role(s) and/or selected section(s)/roster(s) to create groups randomly from all of the selected roles and sections.
2. Or, select Create groups containing the members from the selected role(s) and/or selected section(s)/roster(s) to create groups that are restricted within roles or sections. For example, if you have students in multiple sections, it will only place students in groups with other students enrolled in the same sections.
   
   Once you have made your selection for the composition of the group, you need to choose how you want to break up the site participants.
3. Select the Split by number of groups needed radio button to indicate the total number of groups you want.
   • Enter a Group Title. This title will serve as the basis for all of the group names. Unique numbers will be appended to the title.
   • Enter the number of groups desired.
4. Or, select the Split by number of users needed per group to divide up the participants by a given number of group members.
   • Enter a Group Title. This title will serve as the basis for all of the group names. Unique numbers will be appended to the title.
   • Enter the number of participants per group desired.
5. Click the Continue button to proceed.

Preview your groups to make sure they look correct. If everything looks good, click Create to create your groups. (If you need to make a change, click Back to return to an earlier step in the process.)

There are two methods to create or update multiple groups at once:

1. Type or paste the group information into the text box provided.
2. Click the Choose File button to browse for and select your import file.  
   • Your import file should be in comma-separated (CSV) format with two columns of data. The first column should contain the group title, and the second column should contain the username of the site participant. Do not include a column header row and do not include spaces.
3. Select Continue to proceed with group creation.
