Small Group- Personal

In my educational career, I have participated in many small groups for school projects. These would be considered work groups because we are all working towards a common goal. In high school I worked on many group projects but I never really enjoyed them because one person was always stuck doing all of the work. I think this is unfair because then everyone would get the grade that one person worked for. Although I didn’t always get stuck doing all the work, I have had my fair share of bad group members. Small groups can be effective for many projects and I have been in many groups where the work has been shared equally. For example, in my chemistry lab group we shared the work equally because if we didn’t, our lab would not get done correctly. Everyone had a job that they had to do because we were restricted on time. This group consisted of 4 people and the jobs were easy for the most part. Sometimes I like small groups but other times I don’t because the members don’t take responsibility for their jobs.
