IMPORTANCE OF TEAMWORK/GROUPWORK

IMPORTANCE OF TEAMWORK/GROUPWORK


Teamwork/ Group work is an essential and important part of school life the group you choose to work with on an assignment can either be a great experience or one of the worst experiences you have had which is why it is important to pick your group members carefully. I’m going to give some tips that will help you in this area firstly pick your partner carefully if you meet someone you can trust at the beginning of the year stick with them for as long as you can, even if you have to pick your classes together to make sure you guys are in the same class just like a business partnership. If you do not know someone you can  trust or do not know anyone and you are new don't be shy talk to people put yourself out there people are nice but if you do not make the effort to talk and make yourself known usually no one will talk to much. while you are talking to people making new friends observe their work ethic are they focused are they taking notes are they participating in class asking questions try and get people like that in groups with you it. now secondly  when it comes to group work sadly there are some people who do not cooperate well in a team whether it be there's a lack of communication or they do not do their work and they live things till the last minute, someone has to take charge of the group and get everyone together schedule the meeting times to work on the assignment together one way i find has helped me out a lot and is something i do all the time is on the first day the group is established get all group  members contact information immediately and begin by creating a group texting or messaging whether on Facebook or WhatsApp etc. and lastly The sooner you begin on an assignment the quicker you finish it and you are not so stressed out. I have seen many people who have left group work till the last minute I am even guilty   of doing that. You stress yourself out when you do that and the work you do might not be the greatest so I will not suggest it.
