  Got a classroom setup question:
  
  "Can I set student accounts so that they can only send and receive messages from me (not to each other?)"
  
  The answer is YES! Here is how:
  
  When you create a new class group, make sure that you uncheck the last box (Group members as friends?) ==> ie. Don't make every member automatically becomes friends with one another
  
  However, even if you select this option, students can still participate together in the class group forum discussions, so it won't hinder their collaboration in class.
  
  ===============
  
  The choice is yours during setup. Let us know what you think
