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!) If said students did not participate in the group work, then they will not receive a grade for the project. I would also pull those four students aside and let them know they will not receive a grade if they continue to not put in effort or time.
