Make a group structure

Based on the groups that have been created, imported, or automatically synced from your SAS, a structure can be organized in the group overview according to your preferences.

Creating Structure in the Groups Overview

Introducing structure to the groups overview offers several benefits:

• Simplifies Year Transitions: Proper group structuring makes transitioning between academic years more manageable.
• Improves Clarity: A well-organized structure enhances overall visibility and comprehension.
• Controls Member Visibility: Helps define which group members can see each other’s updates in the timeline.
• Facilitates Location-Based Splitting: With locations enabled, it becomes easier to segment materials, ensuring teachers only see library content relevant to their assigned location.

Tip: If your school operates across multiple locations or programs, create a main group for each location or program. Place this main group under the academic year, e.g., 2024-2025. Then, add all associated groups for that location or program under this newly created main group. Linking a location to the main group will enhance clarity and accessibility for teachers.

Administrators can create and modify group structures as desired, regardless of how groups were imported into Simulise. Groups can be easily moved using the following steps:

• Select the checkbox next to the group(s) you wish to move, then choose Bulk -> Move.
• Select the new main group to which the selected group(s) should be moved.

Special Considerations for UWLR-Synced Groups

• Groups synchronized with the SAS will display "UWLR" next to their name.
• Groups within the UWLR structure cannot be moved outside of it.
• Newly created groups from the SAS will automatically appear under Groups or Composite Groups.
