D2L - Groups

Last Updated: 10/19/2012
Overview 

The Manage Groups tool is used to create group work areas for users. Groups can be used to organize users’ work on projects or assignments, or to create special work areas for users with different learning needs.

About Groups

Users can belong to any number of groups in the same course. For example, a user could belong to a group for each class project, a special interest discussion group, and a group for advanced users all at the same time. Each group can have its own discussion forums, dropbox folders, and locker area to work in. Members of groups can be graded as a team or individually.

Groups Documentation

OIT provides documentation for a great variety of topics associated with the Groups section of Desire2Learn, including creating course sections. To see a full list of these topics visit the Instructors Tutorials page.
