[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most teachers know. when they assign a group project, who is going to do all of the work and who isn’t. [b]It’s a big deal to the parent and the kid who have to see this all play out over the course of the project. [/b] But in 90% of the groups, the teacher already knows who is doing the heavy lifting and who is on a smoke break. [/quote] I'm willing to accept that the parents who are encouraging/supporting the stressed out kids sort of don't matter in this scenario. But the kids to whom it is a big deal? Don't they and their stress levels of doing 2-4 people's work on top of maintaining their academic excellence they expect in other classes matter? Sure it's life. Sure they'll have to do this on the job too. But does that make it OK to do at 14-18?[/quote]
