Time for action – manually adding students to a group
Return to the course front page and select Groups from the Administration block.
Click on the name of the group you want to add members to and press the Show members for group button.
Press the Add/remove users button.
Select the users you want to add into the group (you can select more than one at a time) and press the Add button:
Note that the users are immediately added to the group. If you then press the Back to groups button you will see the brackets after the group name now tells you how many users are in the group. If I click on the name then the members are listed in the Members of list:
That's it. We're done!
What just happened?
We've just seen how easy it is to manually add a student to a group and removing a student from a group is as easy (did you spot the Remove button as you were adding users?).
If you've a lot of students then that method can become cumbersome. The more typical way of grouping students is via the group enrollment...
