Key information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blackboard groups are a way of organising students on a course. Students can belong to more than one group at a time and groups can be set up for many different purposes including Bb Assignments, Tests and Discussions, Turnitin inbox filter and emailing via the Messages function. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

How it works?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Groups in Blackboard Learn Ultra are set up on the Groups page. All groups are group sets where not all students are required to be assigned to a group. Student can only be in one group within a group set, however, there is no limit to the number of group set you can set up on the course. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
