Cloning groups

[JosueARamosR]

Hello everyone.

first let me explain the situation I'm facing; all groups were organized from the very beggining of the course, six weeks later I need to move two members of one of these groups to another group.

I was thinking the process would be easy, just to remove these students from the original group, and then register them on the new group.

But then I read a comment suggesting that instead to remove a student, is better to clone groups...

I have been searching for more information about cloning groups, but until today I can't find a comprehensible information that explain how this process work, how to perform the cloning, and other details about it.

does anybody knows where can I get this information... or somebody can enlight me about this.

your help will be appretiated.

cheers

Hello @JosueARamosR ...

The only information I've been able to find about cloning group sets is found at the bottom of this Guide:

How do I view all groups in a course as an instructor?

Hope this helps a bit.

thanks Chris,
that's what I mentioned, information about this is soooo poor...

If you have feedback to provide to the Documentation Team on how to make any of the Guides clearer, you can go directly to the Guide you're looking at (for example, the one that I linked in my earlier reply).  Then, scroll down to the very bottom, and you'll see a blue "Leave Feedback" button.  This feedback will go directly to the Docs Team, and then they'll consider any suggestions you might have on how to make the Guide clearer for you and others.

I am having the same issue and not able to figure out how to move students to a new group mid-term without losing everything from the original group. Still no solutions after two years from the original post?
