Content groups are virtual groupings of learners who will see a particular set of course content. You can use content groups to designate specific course content as available to particular cohorts of learners.

Create Content Groups#

To create a content group, follow these steps.

  1. In Studio, select Settings, then select Group Configurations.

  2. On the Group Configurations page, select Add your first content group, or New content group if you have already created one.

    Button on Group Configurations page for adding first content group.
  3. Enter a meaningful name for the content group, then select Create. The page refreshes to show the name of your new content group.

  4. Repeat this step to create as many content groups as you want.

After you create a content group, you can work with your course outline to specify which components are available to specific content groups. For details, see Specify Content as Available Only to Particular Content Groups.

You associate each content group with one or more cohorts in the LMS, on the instructor dashboard. For details, see Associate Cohorts with Content Groups.

Delete Content Groups#

To delete a content group that is currently in use, you must first remove it from any course unit visibility settings that use the content group.

  2. On the Group Configurations page, locate the content group that you want to delete.

  3. Move your cursor over the content group’s box, then select the Delete icon.

  4. In the confirmation message, select Delete again to confirm the deletion.
