Instructions to
form groups of users in LiveText:
After you feel comfortable
with LiveText, you may want to learn forming
a group so that you do not have to search
for your instructors’ names each time
you need to send something for review. You may
also form a group to include your peers in your
project team or class.
1.
Click on My Desk. On the left
hand side column, under the title “Collaboration”,
click on the link Groups.
2.
Click the [Create] button on the top-left
corner of the listing table.
3.
For the group, type in a relevant ‘title’.
For example, course number or department name
or project name. You may type in an optional
‘description’ if you wish
to.
4.
Click the button [Save] to create the
group.
5.
Check that the group you just created
is listed in the table on page My Groups.
You have two links on the right hand side of
the group: edit and members. Click
the link members to begin adding your
instructor(s) as group member(s). (Edit is for
modifying group name and description.)
6. Click the tab 'Add Members'.
7. Look up your instructor’s
name as you do when you send items for review.
Check the box next to the person’s name,
and click the [Add] button.
8.
If you wish the group to include only
one name, hit the button [Go back] on top-right
corner of table. If you wish to add other names
so that items go to multiple people at one time,
add the second, third, etc. names as you added
the first, by following steps 6 and 7.
Click on [Go back] when you are done.
9.
Now, when you are ready to send an item
for review, instead of looking up your professor’s
name each time, click on the drop down menu
to ‘choose group’ in reviewers.
Choose the correct name, click on add
to the right of the drop down box, and hit finish.
10.
Don’t forget to verify the item
has been sent by checking your reviews page.
