Admins can choose whether users should be auto-enrolled into campaign courses or not. Selecting a campaign course will enroll the user in the selected course after signing up. In addition, admins can define a default course role for students as well as for parent users.
Magic can automatically create groups and assign users to them when they sign up for the campaign. There are two options for auto-creating groups: using either the campaign title alone or a combination of the user’s name and the campaign title. A Magic campaign can also directly sort these groups into groupings. However, the groupings must be created in the campaign course beforehand.
It is possible to activate a group messaging option that allows all group members to exchange information via the chat. In addition, it is possible to generate a specific group enrollment key to assign users directly to the auto-created groups. Moreover, admins can define group capacities to manage the number of participants per group.
Example for group sign up: per user
This campaign creates a group in the campaign course for a teacher. The enrollment key can then be shared by the teacher with his students. The group capacity is limited to 10. This setting is very useful when a teacher has prepaid for course seats and wants to allocate them to their students.
Group messaging is activated, so the students of the same group can chat with each other.
Additionally, the group will automatically be assigned to a specific grouping within the campaign course. This allows you to restrict access to course activities based on groupings.
The teacher can enroll in the course through a campaign that we’ve called the ‘Group sign up’ campaign.
In this example, the campaign is set to redirect the teacher to a summary page of the associated course. Additionally, a welcome message is automatically sent to the teacher’s inbox, containing the group enrollment key, which can then be forwarded to the students.
The teacher is now enrolled in the course with the role specified in the campaign settings (in this case, ‘Non-editing Teacher’). Additionally, a group is created that includes the teacher’s name and the campaign name.
The group enrollment key can be found in the group settings or, as in our example, it was conveniently sent to the teacher via email.
To ensure students are enrolled in the correct course group – in this example, under Teacher Mary’s contingent – we’ve set up a second campaign where students can enter their enrollment keys. Of course, this can be a single campaign for all teachers, as the enrollment keys will automatically assign students to the appropriate teacher groups.
The student can also be redirected to a course summary page and receive a welcome message with further information.
In this example, two teachers have signed up and created courses for their students: Mary and Harry. They have forwarded their enrollment keys to their students. Once the students enroll through the student campaign, they are automatically assigned to their respective teacher’s groups.
Furthermore, since we defined that the teacher groups belong to the ‘Campaign Groups’ grouping, these groups are also automatically assigned to this grouping.
Example for group sign up: campaigns
This campaign creates a group within the campaign course, enabling you to track the sources of your contacts, such as from events or fairs.
By setting up a campaign for each event, these campaigns can automatically create groups within a course and assign students to their respective groups.
In this example, students are automatically grouped based on the campaign they have used, allowing you to track whether they are leads from the study fairs in Hamburg or Berlin.
Additionally, the groups are automatically categorized under the ‘Fairs’ grouping as defined.
