You must either deploy groups to a Content Area or create a Tool Link to groups for your students to access them.

  1. Go to the Content Area where you want to deploy a group or group set.
  2. Click Add Interactive Tool > Groups.
  3. Select “Link to the Groups Page” to create a link to all groups or “Link to a Group or Group Set” to create a link to a specific group/group set (if you choose this option, select the desired group/group set from the list).
  4. Click Next.
  5. Enter a Name and optional Text for the link, and set options as appropriate.
  6. Click Submit. A link to either the Groups page or a specific Group or Group Set is created in the Content Area through which students can access group pages and sign-up sheets.
