Renewable Energy Questionnaire
Team Builder

Click "Build Teams" tab if not already selected.

Select the "Number of teams" you want to create. Two teams display by default; click the up-arrow to add more or down-arrow to decrease the number.

At "Prioritise", select whether you want it to be more important to have "equal team numbers" or "students with most criteria met".

Double-click the team names (Team 1, Team 2 etc.) to enter names that are more meaningful for this activity.

In the criterion box the first question is selected in the drop-down; your selection in the "with any/all/none" of the following drop-down list will depend on how you phrased the question, and which selection type you chose.

Select answer you want for the criterion question.

The number of students meeting this criterion will display at the bottom right of the question.

If there are too few for one to be placed in each team, you may have to reduce the number of teams or, for a "Select any" or a "Select one or more question", select additional acceptable answer choices for the criterion.

Click any student's name to see their individual responses to the questionnaire.

When you click "Add New Criterion", a second predicate/criterion will display. 

Click the dropdown to select another question.

What are types of renewable energy?
What type of energy is not renewable?
How can renewable energy be harvested?

The two criterion boxes have the word AND between them. You can click the AND if you wish to toggle it to OR. This flexibility allows you to create quite complex predicates.

To refine your predicate/criterion, you can add one or more sub-criteria by clicking the crooked arrow  at the bottom left of the predicate box.

The sub-criterion will be placed in the same box.

The criterion boxes can be removed by clicking the "X" on the top right corner of each box.

When you have created all the predicates/criteria, click "Build Teams".

Team Builder will assign students to the teams based on your criteria. At this stage you can still change your predicate selections, the number of teams and the Prioritize selection, to arrange students in a more satisfactory way, clicking Reset Teams to implement your changes.

There may still be some names in the Unassigned to teams section of the page.

Click "Assign Randomly" to have Team Builder divide the unassigned students into the teams.

Or drag each student's name onto one or the other team boxes as desired. Remember that you can view a popup of a student's individual answers by clicking their name.

You can either: Click "Assign Randomly" to have Team Builder divide the unassigned students into the teams.

When you are satisfied with the selection of students in each group, click "Create Groups" to save the built teams as Moodle groups.

If you want these groups to be assigned into Grouping, enter the "Grouping name"  or select a grouping to which they should be added.

Select the "Prefix Team Names" check box if you wish the grouping name to display wherever the team name displays.

Click "OK" once you are happy with the settings.

A message, "Your groups were successfully created", displays.
