Before the project with the company begins, it's in your best interest as the educator of the course to break the students up into teams and delegate which students are to be working with which companies.
When the students begin the project, the team leader will then be able to start the project for the group of students and add their teammates. Alternatively, as the Students may be split up in teams and delegated to different projects. When the students begin a project, the team leader will be able to start the project for the group of students and add their teammates.
Alternatively, the educator can create student teams by clicking invite students on the students tab of your course page, then click create teams.
Note: When you add your students to a team, remember to add them by the email address they already signed up to Riipen with (if they have already signed up). You can check which students have already signed up in the students tab of your course page. You can see which teams have signed up to which company's projects in the projects tab. Click the down arrow under teams to view the teams.
