Create Cross-Curricular Group

Last modified by Carina Enke on 15.01.2024

A cross-curricular group allows the use of learning or rights groups in several courses. It can be imagined as an overall container that is above the groups and combines them. This container can be easily linked to courses. Thus, the created groups can automatically be used in all configured courses.

Create new Cross-Curricular Group

To create a new group container, proceed as follows:

1

Open the Manage groups section. To do this, select the Administration tab in the main menu and then click the Group administration button in the Manage groups tab.

2

Create a new learning or rights group container. To do so, just select the relevant link on the right side of the page.

The example shows how to create a cross-curricular learning group.

3

A dialogue opens in which you enter the name and an optional description. By clicking on the Finish button, you confirm your entries and your cross-curricular group is created.

Now, the overview of this newly created cross-curricular group opens and you can continue to edit it:

  • (1) Define additional authorised persons for the administration of this group container in the Rights tab.
  • (2) Add courses in which you want the group container to be used in the Courses tab.
  • (3) Display an overview of all learning groups in the group container.
  • (4) Delete the open cross-curricular group.
  • (5) Create further cross-course groups.

You will find an explanation of all editing options on the Cross-Curricular Group page.

You cannot see the cross-curricular group in the added courses? That is correct, because group containers are not displayed there. You will only see contained learning groups of the group container. Therefore, create at least one learning group in your group container. For more information, consult the Manage Cross-Curricular Groupspage.
