I have to disagree with you when you talk about not liking group work. I love working in groups because i think that it makes you learn about other people. It also gives you a chance to work out problems with others. I feel it is easier to have a group if you have questions you can just ask each other instead of trying to figure it out on your own. Yeah sometimes people don’t like to do their share of work, but that is when you stick of for your group and say something. I feel that when my group worked together we learned a lot from eachother in many different ways. We all had different ways of going about things but it just made it that much more interesting.

I too dislike group work. I don’t like it for the main reason I feel responsible. When a person in the group doesn’t do their work, I don’t stand up to them and tell them, I may remind them to do it, but thats it. I get afraid of getting a bad group grade so if they continue to not do the work, I end up doing it for them. I don’t like getting a grade on something I didn’t do. I like to get my work graded and know that I did to the best of my ability not to the best of someone elses. Theres just too much to worry about with deadlines and information and meeting. It’s just a pain sometimes. Some projects work, but its usually when they are just for in class and not outside, that way there is no reliability on anyone else.

I can completely agree with your dis-like of group work. As we talked about before I told you what happened to me last semester. It really makes a difference who you are grouped up with, however, like you said I think it’s going pretty well and we are getting everything done that needs to be accomplished.
