Hi - using v.3.0.3
We use external DB enrolment method to create courses and add enrolments to each of these courses based on what is in our SIS.
Often, teachers will want to combine 2 of their course sites into one so both groups of students go to the same site. To accomodate this we simply use Meta Course Link to attach the enrolments to one site, and the extra site is left hidden and unused. Now with the bulk meta course enrolment tool it is much more convenient to make these accommodations for teachers that want to combine more than 2 sites.
We've been using Moodle long before Cohorts were introduced. I've been scouring the documentation and forums and please hit me over the head with a dead fish if I have missed something obvious, but is there anyone who can see any reason why I would choose to change our existing system to use Cohorts to group the students rather than having the students grouped by course using external database enrolment?
TIA!
