Creating a Group
If you would like people to be able to join your group on RMstudents, you'll first need to create one for them to join. To create a group:
- Click on "Create Content" on the left sidebar. Then click on "Group".
- Make a name for your group. Try to keep it short and sweet. Example's: AMSA, Class of 2011, Jimbo's Study Group.
- Write a brief description of your group. This will show up in the Groups Directory.
- Choose a Group Type. Clubs are for interest groups, organizations, and other student clubs. Study groups are groups of people who want to study together or share information. They can be centered around a subject (Anatomy study group) or around a person (Jimbo's study group). Personal groups are for groups of friends. Graduating classes should be created by administrators only.
- Choose how people will join your group. Options are "open" (anyone can join just by clicking subscribe on the Group Directory), "moderated" (anyone can request to be in a group, but this request must be approved by the group owner [which is the person creating the group, meaning you!]), "invite only" (you or an administrator must invite people for them to join, but people can leave the group whenever they want), and "closed" (you or an administrator only have control over who is added to or removed from a group; not recommended).
