Case: Lazy Group Members
There is an issue I have observed in a high school classroom in which students were split up into groups of 6 to do a collaboration project outside of class. In one group, only two members were participating while the other 4 did nothing. Time is ticking and the project due date is quickly approaching. The two participating members of the group have expressed to the teacher their frustrations with the lazy group members. They have tried reaching out to the lazy group members, but they are still not participating. What should the teacher do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I do not have experience with this, but if I were the teacher I would first try talking with these four students and expressing that if they do not participate they will not receive credit for the assignment. If they still choose not to participate, they must deal with the consequences and receive a zero. In the future, I would pair the students that typically do not participate together, that way they will be forced to complete the assignment since they will not have the luxury of other students carrying their weight for them.
Again, I don't have experience in this, because I'm just a student myself, not a teacher yet, but I would just start by approaching the students about the problem. Sometimes just making students aware that you're watching them closely and that there will be consequences may motivate them to participate. |

| Comments: This is a great opportunity to have those students get a moment to think about their actions and recover from it. By talking to those students you have acknowledged that you know what is going on and that if they still chose to not participate, they will not get any credit for the work the other group members put in. |

| Comments: It will be difficult to give students individual grades for this project because the grading has already been discussed prior to this issue coming about. Therefor, the best a teacher can do is talk to the students about this since it is now a problem, and let them know there will be consequences for not participating. |

| Comments: I think this solution is actually very insightful. The students will have the rules made clear to them and also be aware of the consequences if their actions do not change, which is the most I believe the teacher can do with this problem. |

| Comments: Be an appropriate solution to the situation and is something that I would consider doing as well. High school students should understand that they cannot simply leave all the work for others to do and committing such behavior has consequences. |
