How to set up a group submission

Video: setting up group submissions

If students are working in groups and you want them to submit as a group, you first need to set up the groups on the Moodle module page:

1. From the This course drop-down, select Group management
2. Click the Create group button
3. Give the group a name and scroll down to click Save changes
4. To add students to the group, select the Add/remove user button
5. From the list of students on the module, select the ones who will be in the group and click Add   
6. Click Back to groups to return to the previous screen
7. Add additional groups in the same way (use the 'create group' button). When you click the Add/remove user button, you can see the number of groups a student has been allocated to in the brackets after their name 

When you have set the groups up, the next step happens when you set up the submission (a more detailed look at this is available in the separate guide called how to set up a Moodle assignment tool).  

1. Under the group submission settings section of the student tasks page, change:
   Students submit in groups to Yes, and
   Require group to make submission to Yes
2. The Require all group members submit has been locked. This means that only one member of the group needs to submit the assignment. Their submission will submit for all members of the group.
