To access the group area, click on the link on the Course Menu. Your instructor may also include a link to the group tool inside your course's content areas (i.e. Learning Modules, Content Folders, etc.). Once you are a member of one or more Groups, they will appear in a panel called My Groups under the Course Menu.
Group discussion boards are available only to users who are members of the group. If a group discussion board is available, you can find it in the My Groups section and on the group homepage. In the Original Course View, group discussion boards are separate from the regular course discussion board.
Blackboard Groups allow students to collaborate with one another and establish a closer relationship with other members of the group. Faculty can create a Single Group with either manual enroll or a self-enroll option or they can create a Group Set.
