Hi @LivelloB 

This would be a setting on the user's enrollments. You can limit the user to only interact with other users in the same course section as them. 

Here is a guide with the steps:
How do I limit a user to only interact with other users in the same course section? 

This would affect their view of the people's page, collaborations, and discussions.

Thank you.

According to the post you linked to: 

"Limiting students to interact by section only affects Collaborations, People, and Conversations. When enrolling instructors and TAs, section limitations allow those users to grade students in their same section(s). Discussion topics and Pages are not affected by section limitations and can be viewed by any student. These feature areas could be restricted by creating content in course groups."

If students can view discussions in sections other than their own, can they also participate in them?
