The success of cooperative learning in small groups heavily depends on how the small groups are set up. When small groups are formed, the factors such as the objectives and characteristics of the work and the capabilities and interests of the group members should be considered to maximize the interaction among the group members. However, it is not easy for teachers to manually divide their class to small groups to satisfy such conditions. In this work, we developed and implemented a student grouping system that divides the class as appropriate as possible, when given multidimensional student data and a set of conditions for forming small groups. The grouping conditions can be heterogeneous, homogeneous, and both. The grouping system can easily be used by teachers since the system can be accessed by clicking a menu button embedded into Microsoft Excel. The system has also a wide range of application areas where object grouping by various conditions is needed.
