Manually forming student groups is time-consuming and ineffective.
Creating student groups is time-consuming and complicated—from balancing skills and personalities to ensuring diversity and fairness. Without a strategic approach, groups are often formed randomly or based on convenience, leading to imbalanced teams, poor collaboration, and ineffective learning experiences. Instructors are left to manually organize groups, wasting valuable time and risking conflict and dissatisfaction among students.
Group Formation eliminates these challenges by automating group creation based on customizable criteria, ensuring balanced teams and promoting effective collaboration. This saves instructor time while enhancing group dynamics and learning outcomes.

I think this works better than the Forum in Moodle. Students don’t engage like this is discussion content in Moodle, but they do in FeedbackFruits.
