Name the new group by typing it in the Group Set Name field [1].

You can allow self sign-ups by selecting the Allow self sign-up checkbox [2].

You can automatically split the groups in a number of equal groups by clicking the Split students into [number] groups radio button [3] and then typing the number of groups in the dialog box.

You can manually create the groups by clicking on the I'll create groups manually radio button [4].

Click the Save button [5].

Notes:

  • Except when creating groups manually, you can automatically set student group leaders.
  • The Require group members to be in the same section option is available in self sign-up and automatically created groups.
  • The maximum number of groups that Canvas can create for an automatically assigned group set is 200. If you ask Canvas to create more than 200 groups, it will only create 200.
