[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care as long as my child is doing all the work and doing a good job.  No point in complaining.  I do care when another child controls it and does a bad job.  We had one child where everyone worked on the project, she made some really bad edits and her writing was terrible and then she locked the project online so we could not correct it and went to the teacher saying she was the only one who worked on it (of course she locked it so we couldn't see who worked on it/accessed the document).  We had our child 100% redo the assignment and let the teacher handle it but I'd rather my kid do a ton of work vs. more group projects.[/quote]

It’s also true some students [b]think[/b] they do more than what they actually do. Or think
They do a good job when the reality is opposite. That’s worse than working with slackers.[/quote]

What was interesting is they locked the project so no one could actually work on it.  I was surprised that they would do that and not have an adult or another child edit it as the writing was really bad given their age (granted different kids have different strengths but this child was in many of the same classes and they all worked heavily on writing skills).[/quote]
