[DG: Teaching & Learning] [Using Sakai] A question about auto created groups when using the Lessons tool and Forums

[Kara Stiles]

Some types of integrations cause "Sections" to be created automatically.
Many tools in Sakai treat Sections as Groups (Forums is one of those
tools).  Add the Section Info tool to that site and see if there's a
section in there.  That could explain the unexplained group.

Thanks,
Kara
