Creating a Group Assignment

Instructors have the ability to create assignments and release them only to specific groups.  Instructors can create a single assignment and assign it to all groups, or create several unique assignments and assign them to different groups. Only the instructor and the members in the group have access to the assignment once it has been properly set up.

When creating an assignment, select the radio button for Groups of Students.

The groups recipient window will expand.

In the Items to Select box, select the group or groups to be included in the assignment. To select multiple groups, press the CTRL key and click each group. You may also select all groups with the Select All function.

Click the right-pointing arrow to move the selection into the Selected Items box. Only groups included in the Selected Items box will be able to view/complete the assignment.
