In version 1.8, the concept of Groupings is introduced a way of organizing various groups in an hierarchical structure. While this approach may prove to be more powerful, using groups is no longer as intuitive. For example, a teacher teaches four sections of the same class. The teacher could have 4 groupings (i.e. one for each section). Within those sections the teacher could assign various students to various groups within the groupings. To add a student to a group, the teacher must first add a grouping, then add a group in the grouping and then add members to that group. | In version 1.8, the concept of Groupings is introduced a way of organizing various groups in an hierarchical structure.

Group Hierarchy (Groupings and Groups in Grouping)
Template:Moodle 1.8 In version 1.8, the concept of Groupings is introduced a way of organizing various groups in an hierarchical structure. While this approach may prove to be more powerful, using groups is no longer as intuitive. For example, a teacher teaches four sections of the same class. The teacher could have 4 groupings (i.e. one for each section). Within those sections the teacher could assign various students to various groups within the groupings. To add a student to a group, the teacher must first add a grouping, then add a group in the grouping and then add members to that group.
When the user clicks on the Add/Remove users button, they are brought to another screen with a list of the potential users that can be added to the group. The user then has the option of hitting the return button to go back and view the groupings, groups in groupings and the members of the groups.
