Set Up Group Project

Instructors: outlines how to set up a Group Project assignment. To learn more about Group Project, see the Group Project Overview. Depending on your organization's membership with Bongo, this may be a premium feature.

There are several ways to navigate to an assignment setup page, which will vary depending on your integration.

Once you are on the assignment setup page, follow the instructions below. 

  General Settings

1. Name the assignment.
2. Optional: provide due date/time. Learners can still submit an assignment after the due date, but the submission will be marked with a Late tag.

   To clear the due date/time, click the "X" button to the right of Due Date.

   Depending on your LMS, the due dates may be deep linked in the gradebook. 

3. Select grade type. 

4. Enter text instructions (required) for the assignment. The character limit is 1,024 characters, including spaces.

   While not required, it is recommended to include video instructions as well. 

   If you would like to create video instructions or share an example of the assignment (recommended), click on the webcam icon and add your video.

  Peer Review

If you require peer review, you can determine the number of peer reviews and toggle the button to the right. To customize the peer review experience, view the peer review advanced settings.

  Group Formation

By default, group formation will be instructor-formed, which allows you to create groups manually. To allow learners to choose their own groups or have the system create groups based on availability, view group project advanced settings. 

Once you have finished creating the Group Project assignment, you can create & manage groups.

  Group Member Review

To have group members evaluate each other, you can enable Team Evaluation (also in group project advanced settings).

  Advanced Settings

For further customization of this assignment, click Show Advanced next to the Save button at the bottom right-hand side. You can customize certain aspects of the assignment - including post-submission instructions, the toolset, and self-assessment - in Advanced Settings.
