How to Assign Sections to Groups

 

The purpose of a Section Group is to allow the Instructor to share Lesson Plans with as many Sections as necessary without having to copy the Lesson Plans to each Section.

 

Note: If a Section is NOT assigned to a group whenever you access Lesson Plans, the Application will take you to the Assign Sections to Groups Tab. However, if all sections have been assigned to a group whenever you access Lesson Plans, the application will take you to the Manage Lesson Plans Tab.

 

To access Assign Sections to Groups, click the Lesson Plans Quick Access Button on the Navigation Bar, Assign Sections to Groups Tab.

 

The Assign Sections to Groups Page will appear.

 

Note: You CAN assign more than one Section to each group.

 

Verify the Section to which you would like to add the Section Group is selected. The selected Section is highlighted in blue.

 

Click next to the Section for which you want to assign the Section Group.

 

The Section Group Wizard will appear.
