After finishing the first module, the participants are again randomly assigned to groups (n=32). As such I've got four levels in my data structure with "crossed"data among the students/group levels: 1) Repeated measures, 2) Modules, 3) Students, 4) Groups.

I'm not certain whether it can handle what you want, but you might
want to see if -gllamm- is of use here (http://www.gllamm.org/).
Within Stata you can get a description using -ssc desc gllamm-
