Group projects were almost entirely unheard of when I went to college. I only remember doing one and I didn’t even **** around at all with trusting the other students in my group. We met one time and I had everybody’s work done. I didn’t ask. I just gave it to them and told them it’s like this and that was that.

It was like 18 years later when I got my teaching degree and everything was this stupid group **** and silly group discussions in class. I still say running class with ****ing “activities” like that is a cop-out from instructors who can’t hold the floor lecturing. I don’t want to listen to my classmates. I expect the teacher to ****ing teach.

However, there were class discussions back in my early days where we had to be ready if the professor called on us individually with a specific question. That **** was sink or swim. You bet your ass I came to those classes prepared.

Yeah group activities are definitely busy work. They take extra time for the students to figure out how to work together (i.e. one or two students to do the other two or three students' work for them) which buys time for the teacher to grade papers or whatever, but it's not integrated into a way to teach people how to actually co-operate effectively so it's wasted effort for all parties involved. It just sounds woke.

Agree, group work is bull****, especially in college. Pretty much all of college is bull**** though.

On the plus side, I went from looking at four hours of overtime to seven hours cause some chick got fired this week and I'm even more convinced that my boss doesn't know that he's about to be ****ting bricks when he sees my pay stub for this week. Hell I've got a short shift tomorrow that for all I know might get bumped up again because my boss's mind isn't a steal trap. I hope not cause even he might get it into his head to check my hours at that point but who knows, my next check could make me hood rich.

I agree that group projects are bullsh*t. When you are paying thousands of dollars for your education toward a degree, the fate of your project should not be out of your control.

As a university professor, I agree with this.
