How do I self enroll in a group in my class?

Self-enrollment allows you to enroll in groups on your own.  Your instructor may allow you to choose your own group members or to be part of a topic that interests you. If a self-enrollment group is available, a View Available Groups button is available at the top of the Group page. You can self enroll in groups by clicking the Join Group link beside the name of a group.
