10 Set up any Group Assignments

To set an Assignment as a Group Assignment, follow these steps:

• Click on Assignments in the left menu.
• Click the Assignment that you wish to edit.
• Click Edit in the top right hand corner.
• Scroll down to Group Assignment and check the box that reads “This is a Group Assignment.”
• Select a name for the Groups, select whether you will create the groups manually or have Canvas split them up equally.
• Decide whether to assign grades individually, or to assign the same grade to all group members (the default)
• Repeat this process until all of the group assignments are linked to the correct group.
