Enrollment Types

• # of Groups – No Auto Enrollments:  You define the number of groups and manually add students to your groups later by using the Enroll Users page. Use when you know how many groups you want to create and which users you want in each group. 
• Groups of #: You select the number of students per group, but the system automatically enrolls students. 
• # of Groups: You select the total number of groups you want to create in this category and have the system automatically enroll students. 
• Self-enrollment: Allows the student to enroll in a group. The instructor will always have the ability to enroll users in case a student does not enroll, or you can automate to allow the system to self-enroll past the expiration date. For courses with multiple sections, an instructor can select use Make category and section description visible to section members to provide instruction such as 'Please enroll in a group of your choice.'
  • Groups of # – Self Enrollment: You define how many students you want per group and let students select their own group.
    
  • # of Groups – Self Enrollment: You define how many groups will be in this category and let students select their own group. 
  • # of Groups, Capacity of # – Self Enrollment: You define the number of groups in the category and the number of students in each group. Students select their own group.
• Single-user, member-specific groups: You can create a private area for students to reflect on a topic through a journal type discussion. It can also be used for private conversations between the instructor and student. 

Note: If you select Groups of # or # of Groups, you will need to configure these options: 

• Auto-Enroll New Users: Automatically adds new students in your class to the groups.
  
• Randomize users in groups: Randomly places students in groups. If this option isn’t chosen, the system places students alphabetically based on the Classlist.
