Groups at your School or District
You can see all groups in which you are enrolled, as well as groups at your school, by clicking Groups, then My Groups on the right. Click the School Groups tab to see groups at your school. Use the drop-down menu to choose different schools within your organization (if applicable).

Join Groups
When you find a Group that you feel you should be a member of, click Join Group and refresh. If no approval is needed, you will now see the Group in your drop-down menu and can access the Resources. If approval is needed, please request approval. Some groups are set to "Invite Only" and would require an invite from the Group Administrator.

Leave Groups
If you no longer need to be a member of a Group, click on Leave this Group. You should no longer see the group listed in your Group drop-down or My Groups list.
Schoology Public Groups
Schoology has also created open groups based on areas of study and teaching techniques. You can view and join the Schoology Public Groups by clicking the Public Groups tab.
Group Updates
Updates are meant to be brief messages posted to your group. When updates are posted to your group, they will appear in the Updates section of your group as well as on each in the Recent Activity area of members in your group.
