Once you name the set/group, the new set/group will appear under the list of Student Groups.  If you just created a group set, then a new group will automatically appear.  To rename this group, hold down the apple (Ctrl on PC)  button on your keyboard and click once on the unnamed group.  (If you have a two button mouse, you can right click on the group.)

After you clicked once, release the apple (Ctrl) button.  A menu will appear, click on Edit.  Type in the name of the group.

You can click on the + plus button again to add additional groups to this set or create a new set.

To add students to the group, you must be either in the Scoresheet or Students tab.  Click on either tab to see the current list of students.

It is not necessary to create student groups in order to print individual student reports.  You can create student groups for a variety of assessment purposes. 

To add a new group, click on the + plus symbol under the title, Student Groups.

Then select either Add Group Set (first time) or add to an existing group set by selecting Add Group.

Once you select either Add Group Set or Add Group, you will need to name it.  Type in a name and click OK.

To add a student to the group, click and hold down the mouse on the student name, and drag the name to the group you want to add the student to.  Repeat this process until you are done with adding all the students to the groups you want.

As you continue to add students to the group, the number of students is indicated by the number next to the group name. 

If you add a student to two groups, you will get a window confirming the addition.

To see the list of students in either the Active or Dropped groups, click on the arrow next to the enrollment status.

Once you click on the arrow, the arrow will change directions and expand to show all the students that fall under the group category.

To hide the list of students, click on the arrow again and the list will disappear.

You can view the progress of a selected group by using the Filter Selected function.  Under the title of the window pane, there is a pull-down menu.  By default Highlight Selected is selected.  Open the menu by clicking on it and choose Filter Selected.

When you use the filter selected function, it will list only the students in the chosen group.  If you are in the Scoresheet tab, the filter selected will show you only those students’ assignments and final grade.  You can utilize this function to assign scores to the selected group or to excuse them from assignments in mass.

You can also run reports based on the students in the groups. 

First, click on the group that you want to print report(s) for.  Then select the report you want, and in the Criteria, make sure you select the option under Students, Selected Groups and/or Students.  This will print report(s) for only the students in the group.
