I have a class with 9 groups. Can I make closed forums for these groups. Forums where they can upload files and discuss their topic without sharing their writings vith everybody.

Hi tormod,

If you associate your students to groups and then set your forum to separate groups, doesn't it work as you required in your post above?

Yes it works on the whole side, but as far as I can se, I can't set up one forum to have separated groups and another to have not separated groups. Is it not so?

No, it's perfectly possible to do this ... just make sure in the course settings for the course that the setting for groups is set to "separate" or "visible", and that the "force groups" setting is set to "No".  You can then set each activity independently.
