How to setup group assignment?
| Improper setup can block students from submitting their works. If in doubt, guide the students to submit in groups instead of using this group assignment feature. |
In order to set up an assignment for students to submit in groups, you will first need to arrange students into groups, then put those groups into a grouping, then assign that grouping to the assignment.
For more information on group / grouping creation, please read:
If there is more than one group assignment in your course, and each of them requires different student arrangement, then you will need to prepare different sets of groups / grouping.
When creating a new Assignment activity, configure the following three settings to make the assignment a group submission:
Students submit in groups
If enabled students will be divided into groups based on the default set of groups or a custom grouping. A group submission will be shared among group members and all members of the group will see each others changes to the submission.
Require all group members submit
If enabled, all members of the student group must click the submit button for this assignment before the group submission will be considered as submitted. If disabled, the group submission will be considered as submitted as soon as any member of the student group clicks the submit button.
Grouping for student groups
This is the grouping that the assignment will use to find groups for student groups. If not set - the default set of groups will be used.
