Group work
« on: November 20, 2009, 12:36:20 pm »
when you are doing group work, what type of person will you choose in order to make the project success and how if you are with those people who are irresponsible to the project?
Hope anyone can solve this problem. thanks ???

Hehe... I did much group work at school... Maybe I can help...

First, select a good team-- responsible, enthusiastic, willing to work and cooperate to the full. But yea, do remember that HOW the group works depends very much on the leader. Use the democratic style if possible, it has always worked! Find ways to keep your group motivated... Interested.... Satisfied... And WILLING to work with you.

And while recruiting people.... Important advice: Beware of braggarts...LOL
Many people talk a lot, without necessarily doing anything... Do not be emotional, be rational. Select on the basis of meritocracy. Give the opportunity to those who deserve it, not beg for it. And make sure that you know each and every member of your group. They must not necessarily be friends, you'll make friends along the way...

But they must be credible, responsible, and willing.

Identify WHY-- the purpose-- your prospective group members would want to join you, that'll help to decide later.

Just do not the silly mistake of favouring few members.... It is a demotivation....

And remember to treat them as YOU would like to be treated!

Well, the rest is up to you now!

Good Luck  :)!

Do i need to tell the teacher if  someone is not doing anything until the last minutes to present the work for the class and they just take my notes which i will present later. This make me nothing to said in the presentation and the lecturer may think that i do not done my job while they did ?
If yes, the lecturer may deduct marks for the group cooperation or frendship may break.

What I had once done:

Two of my group members had not worked when they were supposed to. Two days were left before we had to submit our work. I dragged them till the library... Made them sacrifice all their breaks, all free periods, etc. Sat with them, and made them work hard.... even though we didn't really need any of their research. What was important was that I MADE THEM WORK. That's all.

Gosh... I can't believe... But I really did that!!!  :D

Always welcome Lastgift  :).

Hehe... Zara... I did worse... ::) ;)

Once I made my group remove all their posters 15 minutes before the Ministers would come... Just because I wanted it to in the form of a cross... If they didn't need me, they would have killed me! Surely!!  ;D
But when the cross was made, their anger vanished.... all by itself... :)

I'm grateful to the members... They have been cooperative, and most of all, patient...hehehe..... but we did nice jobs together... Miss those moments now... Some were even running when I asked them: Have you completed your job yet?  ;D ;D

Okay... I'm shutting up now... Some will get afraid.... LOL, am not a monster. I just like everything to be well-done.  ;)

I really hate it when a group member doesn't give a damn about the project.

I went to the teacher once to ask if i could do the project by myself since no one in my group was interested, and she said go ahead. I nailed the presentation good! The others did some research the day before and almost failed the presentation  :D

They weren't my real friends so i didn't have to worry  ;)
