I believe I hit a bug, which I'm able to reproduce. My course has three sections of ~22 students each.
Something seems to be wrong with that combination of options. Works without the "Require group members to be in the same section", or by setting to "Split students by number of groups".
Hello @afeld-cu !
I am sorry to hear that you have been having issues with creating groups in Canvas that are provisioned automatically based on the sections in the course. Most likely this is a result of students being enrolled in more than one section of the course. For example if all the students are enrolled in Section A of the course, and additional sections are created in the course to split the students up (say Section B and Section C), then each student would have more than one section enrollment, and Canvas would not know how to prioritize what sections the students should be in when splitting them up by section. If Student 1 is enrolled in Section A and Section B and Student B is enrolled in Section A and Section C, Canvas would be correct to place them in the same group because they are both enrolled in the same section: Section A; even if they are enrolled in different sections as well (B and C).
If this is not the case in your course (overlapping sections), then you may want to contact Canvas Support to allow them to thoroughly investigate the problem you are experiencing.

Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
