Group work to me is always dreadful. I always try to avoid getting together and working with others because some people never do the work and then make up excuses on how the material got burned or their cat ate it...true story. I never take pity on them and will usually make a point in front of the class during our presentation time that they did nothing for this presentation. Humilation is my goal for that eprson because if they never learn their lesson, then they're going to be that person who works in the office and never gets anything done or never likes to do the work because it's "too hard". I'm honestly petrified about getting into groups and doing work with others because I feel like I can never rely on the others to do their part. I have been in soooo many groups where they think that i'll do all the work and they'll take the credit. I know there are people out there that actually give a crap about school and their classes and i'm hoping that my group for unit 3 is just like that. I honestly am not too afraid of this group work because all this class we have done nothing but writing and making sure we have our assignments in class with us on certian days and I think that helps all of us become more responsible in a way.
MYYYY ideal group work: Of course the perfect group would be the group that did what they had previously agreed to and won't back down from what they said they were going to do leaving the restof us scrambling to figure out what's going to happen to our grade!! I hope that everyone does their work and that we come up with an awesome topic for unit 3 because honestly, if we don't come up with anything that seems interesting to me, my work might not be so good. I'll do my part of work no doubt, but it just might not be that great or it might not even make sense at all! So 1. My group members should do their work and 2. The topic should be interseting
Different roles of group members:
1. One person will keep a check-list of all the peoples names in our groups and if they completed their assignment or not so in the end, if someone didn't do their work, the professor will know.
2. One person might come up with what genre they want to focus manily on or what genre they work best with.
3. One person might even come up with making goodies or something for the class so they don't fall asleep in the middle of our rpesentation, even though it's only 15 minutes long...I have ADHD, I might jsut dose off in someone elses....
4. One person might, like Amanda Irvin said, be in charge of making up the title. The title to me is a pretty big deal because all throughout high school, we aLWAYS had to have a title to our paper...even if it was just a few paragraphs. I just feel like people should get an idea of what they're about to read.
5. Every grouop member should keep a folder of all the work they've done so as to credit those who did their work.
