  Case: Uneven Workload
Mrs. Christie gives a group a B on their project. After class a student in the group comes up to her and tells her that she had to do most of the project and the others in the group didn't do their parts. She also explains that her grade is bordering an A and it was brought down because of her group mates. What should Mrs. Christie do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mrs. Christie should provide the group with a rating rubric. This rubric should be used to discuss each members responsibility, and if it was fulfilled. The student should also understand that in regards to everyone completing their work, she needs to inform the teacher of this immediately, not when grades are published. Mrs. Christie should also meet with the group, and try and identify what work was not equally done, and base the grade after she discusses possible problems and solutions.
