7. Change Students submit in groups to 'Yes' 
8. Select the Grouping which you want to use for the assignment (i.e. the grouping that contains the relevant groups). N.B. for Group Submissions, student can only be a member of a single group at a time.
9. If you want all students in a group to officially confirm they are happy with the group piece of work that has been submitted you will need to force students to click the submit button.  Note:  Only once every member of the group has clicked the Submit button will the assignment become visible to you
1. Go to Submission settings and change Require students click submit button to 'Yes'
2. Go to Group submissions settings and change Require all group members to submit to 'Yes'
   
   

Please note: Normally we recommend Require all members to submit is set as No then only one student needs to submit on behalf of the group, and it can be any one of the members.

Do not change group allocations once submission has started as a student's submission can be overwritten because they have been moved group. 

Marking Group submissions

As soon as you apply a grade and add feedback comments to a submission for one of the group members it will be replicated across all the members of that group.  You cannot apply different grades to different students in the same group.

It is possible to give students within a group their own individual mark, or you may prefer to give one grade to the entire group. The toggle for this parameter is found on the marking page under Group Submission Settings.

What a student sees

The example below is what a student will see when the group assignment requires all group members to officially confirm they are happy with the submission.  One student will upload the document and then the others will have to go into the assignment dropbox where they will see the file that has been uploaded.  They can choose to edit the submission e.g. upload a different version or confirm the submission by clicking Submit assignment.  Each student in the group has to do this before the assignment will be fully submitted.  Each student can see who in their group is left to submit within the drop-box under Submission status.
