Cohorts and Course Groups: A cohort is a learner group made up of a list of learners, and a course group is a learner group made up of learners based on their enrollment track. This would necessitate making it so that Learner Groups can be linked to a content group.
We’d want to be thoughtful about this functionality though (since dynamic groups would likely not serve as the best cohort and currently, learners can belong to more than one learner group).
However, the benefit of being able to link a learner group to a content group would be that you could potentially provide additional content to a learner who did not perform well on a particular assignment and even re-test that learner later on in the course. (This is an idea that came up a few times when talking to course delivery teams about learner grouping).
Teams are a little more complicated since they can be learner defined, they are organized around projects and forums, and involve team-sets. Folding teams within the Learner grouping umbrella would require some additional thought.
