[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 468780, member: 84"] This is why I think "groups" ought to be banned, at least if it's for a grade. I had the same issues in school. Somehow I always got stuck with the "bad" group, you know, the ones who never wanted to do any work. (even during my recent college days, so they grow up and do the same things!!) easy child always wound up doing everyone else's work because she couldn't accept anything less than an A. After years of this I finally had her consult the teacher that if the others in the group chose not to do the work and easy child only did her part could she be graded separately. She did have one or two teachers that would do that. (I did too in nursing, thank heavens) I know the point is to teach you to work within a group. I get that. But it's not fair to hold each student accountable for the actions of the group. They're kids, it's not fair to place that type of responsibility on their shoulders. Nichole just flat out refused to do someone else's work. lol And Travis had issues with the groups letting him do anything at all. *sigh* [/QUOTE]
