+<p>The group mode can be one of three levels:
+   <ul>
+      <li>No groups - there are no sub groups, everyone is part of one big community</li>
+      <li>Separate groups - each group can only see their own group, others are invisible</li>
+      <li>Visible groups - each group works in their own group, but can also see other groups</li>
+   </ul>
+</p>
+
+<P>The group mode can be defined at two levels:</p>
+
+<dl>
+   <dt><b>1. Course level</b></dt>
+   <dd>The group mode defined at the course level is the default mode 
+       for all activities defined within that course<br /><br /></dd>
+   <dt><b>2. Activity level</b></dt>
+   <dd>Each activity that supports groups can also define its own 
+       grouping mode.  If the course is set to "<a href="help.php?module=moodle&file=groupmodeforce.html">force group mode</a>" then 
+       the setting for each activity is ignored.</dd>

+<p align="center"><b>Force Group Mode</b></p>
+
+<P>If the group mode is "forced" at a course-level, then 
+   the course group mode is applied to every activity 
+   in that course.  Individual group settings in each 
+   activity are then ignored. </p>
+
+<p>This is useful when, for example, one wants to set up a 
+   course for a number of completely separate cohorts.</p>
