Don Sheridan (ID: 000000b807e72150) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/03/2016 This is exceptionally helpful and amazing for two reasons. 1. Everyone needs lists of students organised by groups. 2. Isn't it weird that an LMS that has hundreds of institutional users doesn't come with basic tools? Well done you guys.
