Blog Post 4

The biggest problem I'm looking at right now is the group work. Where as I work well in groups, I still have issues relying on people to pull their own weight. I've always been a good team player and give my two cents on everything. When you have to worry about one or a few people messing up something for the whole group it gets pretty nerve racking. The saying, "Two heads are better than one." can be argued pretty easily. Everyone has an opinion and a different viewpoint from you. This is where group work gets hard for me.

When different opinions are introduced it can lead to arguing which never gets anything done. That's why everyone in a group has to come to a mutual agreement to get any work done. If someone won't budge though it can lead to nothing getting done. That's why I don't like group work all that much and try to avoid it, but if I am forced with it I can compensate. I'm easy going so that makes it easier with group work. I like to listen to what everyone has to say and choose the best solution that pleases everyone.

Hopefully my group will see eye to eye and work well on this group project.

  1. This is a concern of a lot of people. Folks not pulling their weight is a big big issue. I think its always going to be a main concern in group work though. But i think if you get good people it will turn out okay in the end.

  2. I also agree i hope our group can pull it together and make a good grade on this assignment because i believe we all could use it and luckily we are all pretty laid back guys which means we have good chance to make this work
