Google Groups provide a means to receive email at a general (rather than personal) address. Email sent to the address is redirected to one or more individuals at their personal addresses, and not held in a central mailbox. Google Groups can also be used to assign permissions within Google, such as the ability to view a Google Calendar, Document, or Site.
How to Request Google Course Groups
Click the Login button for the group with which you associate
You may be prompted to enter your username and password.
Select the Term you would like to view and select to view either "Subjects" or "Instructors."
You will see the courses you have access to in the block to the right. Select the course you want to make a request for a Google Course Group.
Note: If you are not the instructor, you may request tools on their behalf.
- On the course page, there is a box at the bottom left for Google Course Group. Select the Request button inside the Google Course Group. The system will take a moment to process, then it will say "In Progress" and the date it was requested.
The Google Course Group will be ready for you immediately and you will be provided a direct link.
