How do I prevent students from switching groups in self sign-up groups?
When self-sign up is enabled for a group, students are able to switch groups. To prevent students from switching groups you can disable self sign-up at any time.
If a group has a student leader, the leader will be able to manage group memberships through the course People page regardless of self sign-up settings. However, student group leaders cannot change the number of members allowed in a group.
Open People
In Course Navigation, click the People link.
Save Group Set
Deselect the Allow self sign-up checkbox [1]. Click the Save button [2].
