Whoops, I forgot to include the Jira id of this new feature -
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-22858

> Hi Linda,

> Sorry for the late response.
>
> For #1, there is a new feature in Sakai 10 called Joinable groups,
> which does exactly what it sounds like you want. A patch was also
> provided for Sakai 2.9, therefore it should be possible to add it to
> your Sakai, if you are on version 2.9 .
>
> For #2, the best idea I can think of at the moment is to use the Wiki
> tool. It would be trivial to have a list of topics and have each
> student put his/her name next to a topic and immediately others can
> see which topics are left. Relatively low tech solution, but maybe it
> would work?

> Hi everyone,
>
> I have a couple of faculty requests that are similar and I thought I'd
> run them by the group to see if anyone has discovered solutions.
>
> 1. A faculty member wants to have groups of 3 or 4 students do a
> video explanation of separate math concepts. He would like the
> students to sign up for their own groups.
> 2. Another faculty member has students sign up for a topic to do a
> final project and wants students to identify their first choice on
> the list. Only one topic per student so that when the first person
> signs up for a topic it is no longer available to everyone else in
> the class.
>
> I have looked at the Group tool -- no self signup available -- and the
> Sign Up tool -- limited to day and time slots. I also looked at the
> Quiz/Survey tool but this doesn't work either since the students can't
> see other responses and there is no way to limit access once the first
> choice was made.
>
> Anyone else run into these types of scenarios and found a solution?
>
> I'd appreciate any suggestions.
