Moodle plugin of the month – Cohort to course Group
With this plugin you can add users to a Group within a Course, based on their Cohort !
This is another plugin that we really use ourselves – on our www.moodebites.com Moodle courses site.
This Moodle enrolment plugin synchronises Cohort and Group membership.
Think of it as more of a synchronisation than an enrolment.
Why?
Well, it’s important to understand that it does not make any user enrolments. Only users that are enrolled in a Course via other enrolment methods are automatically put into Groups, based on their site level Cohort membership.
The plugin is available here:

Combined with the Profile field to Cohort plugin discussed last month, these two plugins can be used in conjunction quite cleverly 🙂
