6.2. Gruppen

Main menu → Engage → Groups

In Mahara 19.04, the screens „My groups“ and „Find groups“ were consolidated for easier management of groups.

Groups can be used for collaboration amongst people as they offer the possibilities to:

• Themen in Foren diskutieren

• gemeinsam Ansichten und Sammlungen erstellen und bearbeiten

• Dateien austauschen

• Ansichten miteinander teilen

• submit portfolios for assessment / feedback

Bemerkung

Groups can be created by everybody, staff, or administrators only. The site administrator decides that in Administration menu → Configure site → Site options → Group settings.

This page gives you access to groups on the site.

The Groups page lists all groups that you can see

2. Search: Search for a certain group using a word or words from its title or description. Per default, you search in „All my groups“.
