[Using Sakai] Viewing Group Membership

[Marshall Feldman]

Hi,

If an instructor assigns students to groups, is there any way the 
students can see who's in their group?

Explanation:
I find that some students do not pay attention to announcements, 
assignments, etc., so they are sometimes unaware of the fact that they 
have been assigned to a group or that group activities are going on. 
Therefore, the other students want to contact the non-participants but 
cannot because they do not know who they are.

Also, sometimes students stop participating because they plan to drop 
the course. As an instructor, I could contact each such student 
individually, but there's no reason to do so other than to redo group 
assignments. It's more efficient to let the students in the group 
contact the non-participants than for me to monitor all student's 
activities in the groups and contact non-participants.

Thanks.
