Alex C:
Yeah, I took a few college courses in high school via a local community college and on a couple of occasions group work just meant that I did the entire thing.

Alex C:
Admittedly, it may have been because I was an absolute tyrant at 17.

Lines:
I straight up told a group once that I didn't want to meet with them. But I was a sophomore, didn't live anywhere near campus, and generally hated my entire class. Yay electives! I think this was the same class that nobody except me and one other lady would answer any questions. And I mean nobody. The only reason I'd answer was because silence was unbearable and I hated it more than I hated my classmates.

But it was an interesting class! We read adventure novels! (Treasure Island, King Solomon's Mines, The Sign of Four, and The Moonstone.) We watched movies and had interesting assignments and...nobody gave a fuck. It made me sad.

This makes me sound like I hated undergrad, which I didn't. I had a good time. My major classes and most of my electives were quite enjoyable. This was just one of the bad ones.

Nodaisho:
I have always had good results with group projects in college. Granted, this might be because they have all been in my Computer Science classes. Nobody's taking a 3 to 4 credit class that sometimes requires 20+ hours of work per week unless they are really into it.

look out! Ninjas!:
My cohort is really, really small so by the time group work really became a thing that was assessed everybody knew each other so groupwork wasn't something that could be weasled out of. Then again there are some people in the course that nobody wants anything to do with which makes it complicated.
