How to Create Groups (Faculty)

As a teacher, you can follow the steps below to create groups in myON and assign students to those groups. Groups are normally used for differentiation within your class. You can create groups for class projects, student reading levels, or any other filter that is relevant to you. Teachers can also remove groups at any time or place students in multiple groups.

1. From the main page (dashboard), click Classroom, then Students.
   
2. On the left side of the page, click Add Group.
   
3. In the window that opens, enter a name for the new group in the Name field. (The Description is optional.) Then, choose whether students will be allowed to join the group on their own using a group code. When you are done, select Save.
   
4. Click Save.
5. The group you created should now be listed on the left side of the page.
   

If you want to assign students to it, select Assign; for more information, see How to assign students to groups (Faculty).

If you chose to allow students to join the group on their own, note the group code and give it to the students; students can enter the code in the Join Group field on the left side of their main page and click Join.
