Using Groups
Moodle groups can be used to dictate different access to items in your course by particular groups of students. This can be done very broadly, or on a very granular leve.Below are some scenarios in which groups might help you:
- You would like to deliver some resources to one group, but not the whole class
- Some students should submit different assignments
- Some students should discuss separately from one another
- You want to see a particular set of students when you grade
- You need to grant standard extensions (for any reason, including accommodations)
- You wish to restrict activities to individuals. For instance, you could set up one-person groups if you'd like each student to have their own private forum that only they and the teacher can see (think journaling exercise).
