A learner can participate in course-related learning groups and additionally create and manage independent working groups. In the following section, both types of groups will be presented and explained from the learners' perspective.
5
6 Course-related groups including learning and right groups can only be created by users with appropriate rights. Further information for course authors on the use and administration of learning groups and other group types can be found in the section [[Groups>>https://help.bps-system.de/wiki/bin/view/LMS/Benutzerhandbuch%20OPAL/Lehren/Gruppen%20Ueberblick/?language=en||shape="rect"]].

23 **Working groups can be created and used by any user independent of any course. **They allow **group members to collaborate** within the group, for example, by **exchanging documents** or **communicating via email **or **forum**. They are an appropriate means of student self-organisation, unlike courses and learning groups, which can only be managed by authors.
24
25 Working groups can support project works. Especially in projects where interdisciplinary work is carried out or scientific staff are involved; working groups improve the organisation and coordination by means of CSCW (computer-assisted group work). In addition, the efficiency of the project work is increased by a fast as well as time- and location-independent exchange.

40 Learning groups **are linked to one or several courses**. They can only be created by authors and must depend on a course.
41
42 This type of group is, for example, used for **enrolments** and **registrations**. It can also be used to configure access or visibility rights to learning resources and course elements. For further information on how to work with learning groups, authors can refer to the section [[Groups>>https://help.bps-system.de/wiki/bin/view/LMS/Benutzerhandbuch%20OPAL/Lehren/Gruppen%20Ueberblick/||shape="rect"]].
