     * Click the Gear drop-down next to the section you'd like to be the Master/Parent Course, and select "Link Existing Section".
     * Click the Gear drop-down next to the section you'd like to be the Master/Parent Course, and select "Link Existing Section".

    * Enter a name for the new Section ("F", for example), and then complete the remaining information ("Subject Area", "Level", etc.).

Now that you have your sections created, you'll need to enroll your students. You can do this by providing students in each section with that sections unique access code. To get these access codes, navigate to the course and select "Members".
    * Here's an animation of what it looks like to successfully link linkable sections.

Once students have been provided with the correct access code they can click on "Courses", choose "Join", and enter that code.
 
You may also choose to add each student manually by clicking on "Members" within a section, and then selecting "Add Members".
    * If the requirements for linked sections are not met, the other section(s) will be grayed out. If you hover your mouse over the grayed-out section, you will see a tooltip explaining the cause of the issue.

The most common cause of this is that linked courses must have the same Admins.
    * Select the sections you'd like to link to your master course, and click "Next":

    * As a safeguard against losing grade data for child sections, you must select to download a grade export file for each section being linked:

    * Here's what successfully linked courses look like in "My Courses":

One last concern,...your student swill now see 2 different courses in their Course menu in Schoology. They will see the  Course, which was automatically generated (which only has only one section), and they will see the Course you created in the above steps, which has multiple sections. To help remedy this issue, you can edit the Courses visibility/privacy.
    * Click on "Course Options", and then "Edit Privacy/Course Settings".
[[File:Sections 5.jpg|thumbnail|400 px]]<br clear="all">
    * Change the Course Profile row selection to "No One".

    * The last column should then look like this.
    * Click on "Save Changes".
