Create groups on Redmenta! In this short summary, you can find out how to create a group and what settings are included here.
The Groups menu is where you create groups and manage their settings. For example, you can create a group for a class or for a certain learning community. It is important to note that you can only add members to a group if they are already registered, i.e. have a Redmenta account. You can access the Groups menu from the menu bar in the header.
To create a group, click on the Create new group button and then enter the group name. Use the Add Group button to create the group and click on the card of the newly created group to make further settings.
You can access the group settings with the Manage button. Here, you can find:
- the automatically generated Jumper Code of the group (cannot be modified),
- the members of the group (and the corresponding entry field),
- and the group leaders (and the corresponding entry field).
Here you can add members of the group, but by sending the group's Jumper Code, the students can apply to the group themselves. If there are members waiting to be added, they will also appear here in the Members waiting for approval block.
You can continuously add new members to groups and remove previously added users.
If you want to change the name of the group, click on the Edit button. Next to the Edit button, you will find a bin icon too. Use this to permanently delete the group if you no longer need it.
What are the advantages of groups?
- Share the worksheets with the group, so you don't have to send the Jumper Code/link to everyone separately, or assign the completers to the worksheet one by one. Simply assign the group to the worksheet, and it will immediately appear within the group, where the group members can immediately access it (the worksheet will also appear on the Desktop for them).
- For the worksheets, you can set the filling settings separately according to the groups. For example, if you share the same worksheet with two groups, but one group writes the test in the morning and the other in the afternoon, you can enter the date and exact time of completion separately for the two groups.
- Also, the Results menu lists the group members who did not fill out the worksheets.
