Linking Your Sections Together

 

Important Information About Linking Sections

Before linking sections, make sure you understand these important items.

  1. While you are able to link sections at any point, we recommend that you only link sections at the beginning of a school year. When you begin linking sessions together, the master section is the one that you link other sections to. Those that get linked will set aside any existing materials, grade settings, and data. The linked sections then replace any existing materials and grade setup with that of the master section.
     

  2. If you need to unlink your linked sections at any point during the school year,  be aware that if you separate two linked sections, only the master section retains the materials, setup, grades, and data.
     

  3. In order to link your sections:

    1. The sections must be within the same Course.

    2. The sections must be associated with the same grading period.

    3. Enrollment must be unique across the linked sections. There cannot be any overlap in the students.

    4. The sections must have the same Course Admins.

 

How to Link Sections

Steps 2-7 demonstrated in below:

 

  1. Click your Courses drop-down menu and and select See All.

     
  2. In your list of courses, click the gear icon to the right of the section you consider to be the "master section". If you have materials in both courses, the "master section" is the one that holds the materials and grades you would like to continue to use between the two sections.
     
  3. Select Link Existing Sections from the drop-down.
     
  4. Select the section(s) to link. 
     
  5. Click Link Sections.
     
  6. A warning message displays that says : 

    “You are about to link the following sections to [Section Name]. Note: Materials from these sections will not be copied into [Section Name]. Once complete, the sections will share grade setups, materials and the profile of the destination section, however, member enrollments will still belong to their respective sections”. 

    This means that the section for which you clicked the gear icon will be the master section - the linked sections will now all have access to and use the materials in that master section. This includes Course Materials and items in your Grade Setup (such as Grading Categories, Rubrics, etc). However, the original rosters of students when the sections were separate will remain the same after you link the sections.
     

  7. Click Link Sections.

 

Note - In order to link your sections:

  • The sections must be within the same Course.
  • The sections must be associated with the same grading period.
  • Enrollment must be unique across the linked sections. There cannot be any overlap in the students.
  • The sections must have the same Course Admins.

 

If any of these prerequisite are not met, the other section(s) will be grayed out. If you hover your mouse over the grayed-out section, you will see a tooltip explaining the root cause of the issue.
