using forum in seperate groups

using forum in seperate groups

Nombre de réponses : 10

hello everyone, for 2 hours I am trying to understand seperate groups function in moodle. I have seperate froups but when I set seperate group, the edit, delete or reply buttons can not be seen by the students. I am trying to post a message to forum as a teacher of the group A, And then I am trying to answer this post as a student from group A again, but I cant. If I change the group status and make it no groups, than the buttons seem.

IS it normal or do I have a problem? How can I use forum in seperate groups?

As a teacher, choose each group from the dropdown menu and post them a message - then they should be able to reply to that. You need to choose each group and post them a message separately that they can reply to.

As I understand correctly, while creating mu discussion topic, I am choosing my groups then I am adding the message but still I cant see the reply button as a  student..??  I am sory but as I know, the dropdown menu is used for filtering the students answers according to their groups. While creating a discussing topic, it didnt work..

I made it "visible groups" and this time I can see the buttons but there are 200 students in the course and I want to see them according to their classes so seperate groups is not the correct choice for me. I should find a way to use seperate groups...Please help meee

Thanks you so much Mary!  I appreciate the reply - I am forwarding it to someone else who also had the same question - do you know if this will perform the same way in 2.0?

Hello again its me. Now I can do what you said marry, it is a little bit latesourire but I can, thank you so much. Now I wonder one more thing: Can I remove the add new discussion button? Because I cant create seperate groups in "single simple discussion" forum type, so I used "standart forum." But this time there is a button.. does anyone have a solution for this?

Hi Eda,

I don't get it.  We are having the exact same problem that you originally described.  The initial posting by the teacher does already appear for each group but they are unable to reply (when the setting is for Seperate Group).  They are able to reply for Visible Groups.  We need it to be Seperate.  What did you do to resolve the issue?

Thanks, Angelo

Hi there. The teacher  needs to make a post in every single separate group - then each group can reply. Have they done that?

She posted once, and then the post automatically appeared for every group already.  But, reply is not available to any students.

No -that is why!sourire She has to select each group from the drop down menu and then post again just for that group. If she has 5 groups then she has to post five times. Then each group will have their own separate post that they can reply to.

Mary, thanks for all your help on this.

OK, so I when I created a new "general" Forum from scratch, it worked.  So, if the teacher has the same initial posting for all 14 groups, she may be better off just providing that information outside of the forum otherwise she has to create the posting 14 times.

Meanwhile, I also created a new "simple" Forum and this does not work for this type of forum.
