Group Projects

Posted 01-24-2011 at 03:39 AM by ziggy
I'm sure many of you have experienced this before as students. I hate it when I have a group project and no one seems to care about their grade as much as I do. I feel like I have to end up doing most of the work for our presentation, because if I don't I know we aren't going to last 10 minutes babbling on off the meager notes they've copy pasted from the internet.

Also I woke up at 3:00 am this morning. I'm starting to be a freakin insomniac.

I always used to get landed with the slackers. I got really angry with a group of mine once (because they were all just joking around while I worked) which resulted in me having the piss taken out of me for a few weeks. It was infuriating back then, but I find it quite funny now.

I hate group work. Everyone seems to be thinking differently, and on different time schedueles. Many a time I've been landed with slackers, but that's starting to change. Fewer people slack around in my class now. And I usually get incredibely angry in a rather amusing fashion when they do slack. Usually they get back to work then.

Speaking as a slacker, I hate group work because I don't want to be responsible for letting people down.

Hate group work because group mates NEVER follow the instructions properly. While I actually want to get to know the work methods we are given properly, they just make it look like we used them. ugh. x_x Also the same as Joe.

I used to get grouped for projects with April when we were in high school. I would never let her do anything other than type it up after I finished writing it. One time, I forgot to put her name on it, and the teacher almost failed her.

=( I feel for you man, I hate working in groups especially in english...I like to knuckle down but the worst thing you can possibly feel is when an teacher says get into groups and none of your friends are in the class...what makes it worse is when there's an odd number...only I was going to be left out of a group...it tips the biscuit when you ask groups if you can work with them and they let you stand there sort of silently saying to each other, 'fuck why us.'

If you don't care what people think about you...just tell them to get the fuck with the programme.

I hate working in groups with girls because they always think that what they say is 100% right and nobody may question it. Actually, I love working with girls because they always end up doing all of the work after I convince them that I am half of a retard

I think I've been beaten in slacker points.

When that happens I usually just kick them out of the group and take their name of the paper, report it to the teacher doing the grading and finish the project myself. Then I laugh at them.

Maybe I should feign retardation to get through school. I never thought of that angle before.

the agricultural course i was on in college had the grand total of about 11 people, 5 of which dropped out after a few days. whenever we were grouped, we just all worked together.

but it was still shit. most of the time we ended up talking to the tutor about rats or something. when it neared the end of the course we all had to rush our work. i was amazed i managed to get everything in on time.

I've carried groups before. They deserved the grades I got them. I could make up for it after. They couldn't, ha ha ha!
