How do I enable group submissions for an assignment?

Note: You can only select the group submission option for a new or draft assignment. Once the assignment has been posted for students, you cannot change this setting.

Go to the Assignment tool.

Select the Assignments tool from the Tools Menu in your site.  

Click Add to create a new assignment.

Or, click Edit to edit a draft assignment.

Assign to each individual member of the selected group(s).

Select Each individual member of the selected group(s) to select from a list of all existing groups in the site. Select one or more groups to display the assignment to those groups only.

Or, assign to the selected group(s), as a group assignment (one group member submits on behalf of the entire group).

If you want site participants to submit one assignment per group, Select The selected group(s), as a group assignment (one group member submits on behalf of the entire group) to create an assignment for which one group member will submit on behalf of the rest of the group. Select one or more groups to display the assignment to those groups only.

If you've chosen more than one group to submit a group assignment, a notice will appear offering to scan the groups for duplicate participants (students who appear in both groups). Click Check Now.

If there are no duplicate participants in the selected groups, you will receive a Success message confirmation.

If duplicate participants are detected, an alert message will be shown to you that lists participant and group details. Resolve all duplicate group member in the Manage Groups area of Site Info.

Post your assignment.
