This is why the night before you notify the professor of the work you did as well as the situation with the other group members.
The night before? More like... two or three days before if you have the chance. I've told teachers in person after class when something is going wrong in the team, I always tell them (and genuinly mean it) that I don't want to play the blame game but I wanted to update the teacher in case it goes very wrong.
Not when you're teacher tells you that if you do that, she's going to fail you.
I remember being in high school about to present a group project and the "group leader" tells me I never got your work so you are kicked out of the group. I told her I emailed it to her(and I did) 2 and a half weeks ago. She complains to the teacher and he says well he sent it to you so he gets the same grade based on what everyone else has already submitted since you never spoke to him about the matter prior to this point (literal minutes before it was due.) She was livid. I got a B+. 🤷♂️
really? some of our professors tell us that we're adults and they wont be micro-managing us :')) guess who had to do most of the presentation?
@@daniell4919same happened to me. Kids are asses sometimes.

@@x.yxen.x first blow was the neck. The whole crew had a go though so the back works (though so does the neck, you’re right 😂)
How you can just sit there and listen to someone present your work without throwing hands is honestly commendable…
I would've gone to jail for mass murder that day
I’ve had that happen to me for a sociology course. Group presentation, we all *agreed* on what points we’d be covering, and during the presentation this guy starts presenting my section.
I tried to cut him off but since he “edited” that slide he said no it was his material.
Luckily I made an extra slide just for myself but it was still annoying. Group never communicated again after that, it’s like no liked each other.
Basic self control like damn why would I fight him when I can stick him with a shitty nickname for the rest of the year and ruin their art school career
@@emanchi8403 they probably didn't i didn't like anyone i ever was forced to work with, but people claiming stuff you do is theirs, yeah been there, that is infuriating
Well yeah, she's white and actually civil. She used her words.
I feel this my scientific writing course, i was supposed to write a 10 page essay on the merele gene in dogs with a group of 4 other people. Luckily I have trust issues to I wrote two papers. I did one where I did just my portion and I wrote one where I did the whole thing by myself. I knew by the first time we were supposed to meet and everyone cancelled that I was going to be the only one writing. The day to turn it in came and they all saw me turn in my packet of an essay and when I sat dowm they started thanking me for doing the work. I had already emailed my teacher by the third time we rescheduled our meeting. I got a B and they had to redo the assignment individually.
I feel that. There's so many instances where I hated group projects for similar reasons. Another instance is when I spent over an hour setting an entire slideshow presentation up so all they gotta do is plug in their words (after they okayed me to set it up for them) only for one of them to completely change their slides without checking with the group first then complaining they didn't like the darker color scheme and wanted something lighter. I then said my reasoning for the darker scheme to be able to help them read off the projection easier cuz projectors tend to desaturate in well lit rooms. I then changed it to a light scheme to their preference only for them to complain that they have a hard time reading off the presentation 🙃 they never took accountability for that either lol I was also the only one who didn't read from the slideshow.
Ten pages on MERLE? Damn, I don't know if could even write two 😅 I'd just be like "uhhh merle dog cute, don't mix two together tho" 😂
@@acapellalasagna8115 you can absolutely breed two together, depends on the length of the gene. Plus, are cryptic merles cute? You cannot visually tell they are merle. There's lots to write about.

I just want to note that group work is important and the way you dealt with was not optimal.
Now I’m all for procrastinating on my own projects and doing them as the teacher is collecting them but, group projects are a different story
THIS
Yeah! As somebody who’s a serial procrastinator, if you wanna stall on your own projects until the night before then fine, but you can’t do that when there’s somebody else’s grade on the line too. That’s just fucking your groupmates over.
Facts, if it’s my own project I can and will write a passable essay the night before, but a group project is different because it’s not just my grade in jeopardy
I wouldn't say I'm a procrastinator. However, to normal brained people, I'm definitely a procrastinator. My teachers always thought I'd fail essays or presentations because I never turned in completed steps. The only thing I'd turn in was what I did in class with the teacher staring me down. But then, miraculous, to them, I'd turn in an essay or term paper that grades fairly decently. Ah the powers of an ADHD brain with insomnia.
Exactly, like I don’t really care if I take the blame cause that was on me for not turning it in, but dragging other people into my mess?? Hell nah
For those who don't understand what she meant at the end, it probably means they didn't get their credits for that class, so were one year behind on that specific class. Basically, a junior with a sophomore class and then a senior with a junior class, forcing them to say both when people ask their grade.

i fully support snitching in college. I HATED group projects and got paired up with the worst. For our final 3d animation video my partner suddenly called in sick (a "flu" that lasted for 5 weeks but still went partying) and was supposed to send me an entire car model and 2 scene animation, easy work considering i empathized with her and decided to do 70% of the work, she ghosted me and i had to model, texture, animate as well as edit "OUR" video, luckily the professor recognized my art style and worked something out with me but i was so exhausted, i never knew it was possible to stay awake for 2 nights until that moment.
Same here. I much rather procrastinate alone than have to deal with someone who procrastinates on groups projects.
Glad it worked out in the end. You definitely don't deserve a partner like that ^^
The project sounds awesome too
Ikr 2 nights in a row is a very strange feeling. Everything becomes fast paced you don't even realise its been 48 hours and you start to feel like youre immortal towards the end 😂
@@user-zc6kp5zu6s the "immortal" part is so true! After like 26hrs you get this surge of energy everything feels heightened
But 3 days is where it gets scary for me, its like you start hearing things and you start staring at objects 😭
@@CarlosAM1 exactly and to anyone reading our comments TALK TO YOUR PROFESSOR, STAY AWAY FROM GROUPS, YOU'LL DO A MUCH BETTER JOB ALONE.
The reality check is, no, you cant be a nice person and allow grace, unlike high school theres no room for mistakes, your future and all that money is on the line and you dont want that to be dependent on someone else's reliability to a project.
One time in art class we had this group project it consisted of 4 people including me yk what I did? Everything 2 people in my group were fighting the whole time and the other person was talking with her friends! I did the whole art project by myself with the help of a friend who just colored a bit of the background. I told the teacher no one helped me except my friend and he goes “if no one helped you then they get no credit because they didn’t do any work” was very satisfied with that answer and glad they got what they deserved!
I did, in fact, get an A on an essay I wrote the night before once. It is very possible, however I suggest doing it gradually over time and polishing it before the hand in date, it’s much less stressful.
I graduated with a mass communication degree this way!
I always work best against the clock
lol same here
And not stealing others work. I think that's the only way the ones being talked about in the video did.
I rarely did school work early and always managed to pass when I wanted to. It's very dependent on the individual
Rome wasn’t built in a day and they expected to write an essay on it in one ??

Well a essay doesn't take more than 6 hours to write if you actually were serious.

@@Liggyisbestyter1hilarious🥴
I mean it’s feasible but I wouldn’t wanna pull that on a group project 🥴 gotta be considerate of your group mates
There was this one girl in highschool who never did her work on time. The first year we learned our lesson, the two that followed we didn't want anything to do with her. Except one of the girls my friend an I paired with for big group projects was her friend, and couldn't say no to her in fear of looking bad, so she shoved that responsibility onto others. One time, senior year, we were working in groups of five, and my friend and I talked to the teacher and ended up working just us two because we couldn't put up with her again and would rather have a bigger work load each. It went like a breeze, especially since it was the second trimester and we had different group projects for different classes and we divided the work among us two based on our strengths and then decide and/or put the projects together at school since it wasn't easy to meet up often to work together in real life. Those projects were part of our final grades for senior year.
Trimester??????? Do you mean semester????
@@BennyDrawes in Western Europe, we use trimester as well as semester, although I think semester is used more frequently in college and other higher education, but in elementary and high school we use trimester. There are three trimesters per school year.
Whenever I worked on a group project, I kept in mind the idea that none of the others would do their work, which would mean me coming in clutch for their part. This mindset helped me make sure I was always prepared and saved my grades (and the rest of the group) whenever a weak link (cough*lazyone*cough) would reveal itself on D-Day.
I still haven’t fully forgiven the group who arranged to meet the day before deadline WHEN I HAD WORK to “do the presentation”. I did my quarter of the work and emailed it to them, I checked my phone on breaks to make sure there were no issues, nobody contacted me. MORNING OF DEADLINE, they claim they never got my work and need me to do the last quarter (even though some of my sentences were still in paragraphs that had been redone by them). Did my best but we weren’t done at presentation time. Prof kindly gives us the rest of the day, but a) I have class and b) I’m mad now. They scraped it together without me, and I used the “groupwork analysis” to present proof that I HAD, in fact, finished my share. Everyone passed, and I passed slightly better than they did, but the feeling of “what do you mean I still have to do the assignment I spent hours on and finished my part of?” sucked
Should have been an AI investigation if they copied your work
That groupwork analysis is so key. I was on a project where one guy did the whole project before the meeting to assign who would do what. We each picked what we wanted to do for our quarters and said we would use the remaining piece of his complete project for his quarter. He spent every meeting bitching that his way was better than what we did. When we turned in our group analysis, we all explained that he did this. He said he had to do everything. He got a C. We all got As. The professor knew what's what.
I had a similar situation with a group project. After agreeing that I would be the one to do final edits and submit, they changed their minds at the last minute while I was at an event and started editing my sections of the paper in ways that were both unnecessary & offensive (inserting, among other things, something along the lines of "Islam is inherently misogynistic & backwards" - these were college students majoring in International Studies who should really know better). I did my best to revert the worst of their changes ASAP, literally sitting in the back of the room on my laptop while at an event. One of them did her section of the paper on an entirely different thing than originally agreed upon too. It was a mess, and we all had pretty bad communication skills - I won't pretend I was a perfect student, but that paper was one of the worst group project experiences of my life.
Im slightly confused. If you had your part already finished then wouldnt it have just been copy/paste? What else was there to do that it needed an extra day?
@@jenniferpearce1052 Had one like that too. Its surprisingly annoying. Especially when they think they are doing you a service instead of just basically calling everyone in the group incompetent.

I wanna know the brand and size of the brush!
I had a "best friend" do this with a lot of my work and ideas back in highschool. She still has it on her official LinkedIn as well. Almost makes me laugh she was that pathetic she had to do that. These people are fakes. Karma gets them. I love your freaking work❤❤❤
Omg she plagiarised you! 😮
Broooo that painting is sick ash. Kinda trippy, gotta look closely to see how the boxes and colors blend I love it 😍
Scenarios like these when I went to school is why I wish more teachers would go to each group and note down who in the group was assigned what task/topic. The groups decide that on their own, but the teacher has the notes ready for presentation day.
Then no person can get by with riding on someone elses effort, or others failing because one/several didn't do their part.
This way the students who did their work can get an appropriate grade and whoever didn't do their part is alone with their consequences.
I had one teacher who did this and all the slackers learnt quickly to actually put in effort.
That's such a good idea. Why haven't most teachers come up with this?
thats a really good idea! why aren’t more teachers doing this?
@@Nyctuathey don't get paid enough to care. Why bother with anything except the minimum at that point.
@@dibel3669 why did they choose to become a teacher then if they can't be bothered to care for their students?
@@Nyctua idk, ask them.
As a procrastinator, good on you. I’ll admit defeat before I screw someone else over on a group project.
I only procrastinate if it’s my own project but when I work with someone, I make sure to not let them down
@@Korixon. yeah, same
@@Korixon.fr
Weird how our own selves are our sole downfall
As you should because the person that didn’t procrastinate probably also has the “back stab the back stabber” trait as well HAH!
I procrastinate the hell out of solo projects. Group projects? Hell nah.
This is why I loved one of my first year professor’s policies on group work (which was basically the entire curriculum in that specific course).
He required everyone to independently fill out a document after the project was due but before it was graded, indicating how much of the work each person did and how they worked overall with the rest of the group. Things like if they showed up to group meetings, if they were cooperative, if they contributed ideas at all, etc.
This would then be factored into their actual grades, and if someone didn’t turn one in, some of their own grade points would be deducted but not anyone else’s.
The rest of the group members never got to see these documents either, only the professor.
That’s really shitty and I am that person that can do an essay an hour before class but you will never catch me doing that in a group project. Glad you got justice♥️♥️
Same, I do my own shit last minute but I always stayed on top of group projects in school, even if I could do it last minute and get an A. I also make sure that if anyone needs help with their part of the project then they have me available for that. I usually took control of every group project and I was told numerous times that I was bossy bc I got mad at my groupmates that weren't doing their part. I usually made sure everything looked cohesive in a project once we all put our things together if it was something like a powerpoint or something with multiple parts. I hated group projects bc I always thought I could have just done the entire project myself, usually because I did, but I never hesitated to tell the teacher about it because it was incredibly frustrating and those students didn't deserve an A for my work.
Same! If i fuck up i wouldnt steal someone elses part in a project. I dun o if id fess up tht i screwed up (itd be obvious) but i wouldnt steal another students work or blame them
I always did my stuff on time though even if it was the day before xD
Same. Group projects are the worst. I always ask if I can do them by myself- and a lot of the time I got to.
Once, I even forgot to do my part in a group project, but literally pulled it all together in the last 10 min before class. My group was all panicked, but I was like- “Pfft… It’s okay.”
I had to do “the speaking part” so I just f***ing winged that sh!t; pulled some stuff up on my phone and summoned all of my skill in theater to get through it. We got an A.
It’s better to just BS your way through it than steal. Procrastination is an art form in itself after all.😂
I once grabbed a random book from the library 2 hours before my book report/presentation, put together and awful looking PowerPoint (though that wasn’t mandatory), read the first 10 pages and skimmed through the rest of the book and then went on to bullsh*t my way throughout the entire presentation. Surprisingly I got an A. I was kinda nervous that the teacher would know about that book and call my bluff but I had chosen Brooke Shield’s autobiography or something about her post partum depression so it was unlikely that he would’ve read it lol. Ngl I felt absolutely invincible when I received a good grade for my stupid behaviour 😂
Same! I procrastinate like a MFKR but youll never catch me intentionally fucking up someone elses grade cuz IM lazy and cannot executively function lol. Even if im in a group with ppl i hate, im not putting off group work
Props to the prof who understood the situation.
Literally… none of my teachers (especially my gcse drama teacher) would acknowledge the fact that I was the only one doing the work. Like in drama, when I was the only one devising and coming up with the script and storyline (etc), everyone else also got credit for the work that they didn’t do and it was super annoying, even after I told the teacher what was going on 0-0
@@shookyscousin then darling they do not recognize the talent. I may not have seen your work, but I know they are awesome!
Yeah I did a similar thing when I was put in the one group with 3 members instead of 4 in CHEM I for a project, and they were the least motivated people there basically. So I mostly did the entire thing since it wasn't being done properly by them. I was pretty miffed and gave negative feedback on the group feedback thing, and ended up getting an A while they got a B or C. They didn't straight up take my material tho, at least. I felt like I was being a queen at the time, but at 26 I'm way more confident in sticking up for myself. I'm glad you did too! That piece is incredible btw!
I am that guy that can write an essay the night before and get an A.
My entire class was pissed about it when they found out after finals.
Same here 😂 we’re built differently -high five
ADHD for the win! ✋
Idk why I'm like this. I can't sit down and do my assignment for more than 5 minutes, but will do than entire assignment that was meant to be done in 4 months in only a week.
I had to do a group project, which i typically don't like. I cant remember what it was over but the other two of my partners refused to do the work and opted to let me do all of it. So, like a normal person, I did nothing. I ended up working by myself on a presentation of my own instead of working on a group project. When it was our turn to present, they had nothing and i had my presentation. I told my teacher what was up and they ended up failing the assignment while i got a solid grade.
Really cool art, by the way
Its a dog eat dog would out there
I love story’s of people getting revenge of a group mate that didn’t do shit on the project
Edit: I haven’t seen this comment since I commented it and oh god this is the most likes I’ve ever had on a comment thank you
I learned to do all of the extra assignments in my classes and earned all the extra credit available just so I could tank group projects if I had to. It only took 2 times before people learned I'm not carrying ANYBODY.
I got along with my teachers well enough that they knew a sudden 0 was unlike me, and quickly figured out what happened. People thought, she likes school and she has all A's, she'll do the work. That 0 credit woke them up very quickly.
@@ceruleangelsmart! 😂
I once had to make a whole PowerPoint that was supposed to be everyone's responsibility by myself. So I put whatever I wanted on there and let them present it to the class with no help from me. They had to make it look like they knew what they were talking about while covering slides that they had never reviewed beforehand. It was pretty nice 😂
She didn’t get revenge. What she did was fair and she told the truth. She didn’t do it back to him or get even. She just told the truth. That’s not revenge, that’s justice.

I am thinking about how many people are like that, never do their own work and rely on others and it’s making me worry about myself. What if I end up becoming like one of those incompetent shits? I shall try my best in fear.
Worst group project that I've experienced actually had to do with the nature of the assignment. My group had to dissect a donated lab rat for a biology assignment for a week (this was when I was in middle school, back when Myspace was big and some time before TH-cam - we didn't have to dissect frogs, but technology wasn't yet at the point where people could digitally dissect something yet).
I can remember being squeamish/not being able to pull my weight for the project, but ended up needing to suck it up since the group assignment relied on everyone doing their part. I was eventually able to deal with it and got my group and I to pass the assignment - but man, I'm really thankful they have better technology to teach kids nowadays! 0_0
"Donated lab rat" who had one lying around??? when i was in 8th grade we got to dissect bleached sheep hearts. I got yelled at for putting my finger through the aorta and singing beyonce.
@@kkderobst
Lol, yeah not sure if I can remember what organization donated them but it was probably from a lab or from somewhere like that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thankfully never had dissect anything more then an owl pellet in school. Dissecting animals was taken off the curriculum the year before.
Here my son had the same issue. In any team work he would end up doing all the work alone, even the parts that weren't his, because every teacher always told him it was supposed to be a team work and the same vote would go to all. They were practically saying in a team you're responsible for the team. None of his class mates ever wanted to put in any work, so he often ended up doing it all by himself.
I'm talking middle school, high school AND university. But in work environments it's very much the same.
I think it's an idiotic system to just relieve the teacher (or boss) from taking measures.
All the kids that skipped work think themselves so clever and they will simply grow into parasites.
That’s when you send it to the higher ups. Or just have him do his part and if the teacher doesn’t give him proper credit then go to the principal. 🤷♀️ sometimes the parents need to put those teachers in their place
That’s why our teacher has us split up the work for example we each do two slides in a 4 person group and we put the names in the slides we did and she grades us individually and not as a group,so it’s like a individual project within a group project
Interesting, my son had a similar problem in grade school, instead of changing the groups or teams, the teacher, one year especially, always put my son with any child that was really struggling, when I questioned it because it lowered my son's grades a bit because he was helping the other child, the answer I got was it's because my son is nice and he'll help them and not make fun or embarrass them like the other kids, that he had a kind soul.
My reaction was " oh " so since I raised him to be kind, I let it go 😂 He's finishing university now.
I can say overall he was not harmed by being kind.
@@raizaintilianunfortunately that's not how it works here. Principals haven't the power to fire or discipline teachers in any way. They're just sort of administrators. Turning to them is a very last resort because the chances are the teacher won't face any consequence plus they'll probably turn to the child with a vengeance.
We did that once when a teacher was calling our 14 y.olds retards because they were failing to learn by heart lists of hundredS, no kidding, of new German words. Perfect spelling and relative article ("the" is said in three different ways in German, every word different, very little or no way to tell if not by learning by heart). One single letter wrong it was one full point off (our votes go 0 to 10, 5 or below being D or less). So you can imagine, only four or five kids passed that test. Apparently the rest needed to go to a mental hospital for a neuro check-up (verbatim).
I, as class parents representative, went to the principal. We talked one hour and a half. Nothing could be done. Sue for bullying also wouldn't have yielded results, all she had to do was saying she was kidding. The principal actually had no way to remove her.
But apparently my angry speech worked as the year after she was moved to another class (sigh), and that had no precedent.
That's one thing I like about my school. If we do projects, we have an assigned group leader who at the end of the presentation will give a personal account of what everyone in the group did. Then the teacher would call the group members in private to ask them what they did and if it doesn't tally, then the group loses the marks for participation.
You didnt stab them in the back, you just gave them a dose of reality. They are grown people, and should learn to be responsible for themselves instead of pushing their problems on others, mummy and daddy aint always around to carry their shit
She's saying that SHE was stabbed in the back by the other dude for stealing her topic.
Sounds like they stabbed her in the back, stealing her stuff
@@LargeMikel No she stabbed THEM in the back by telling the teacher about it and making them fail the class and fall behind a year at uni.
@@DavidCruickshank I mean, really it _was_ that person who stabbed both her _and themself_ in the back by thinking they could get away with taking all the credit of something _somebody else_ did without getting their comeuppance 💀
Tbh the only people who I can think of who _wouldn’t_ think this are people who are just as unfair and backstabbing as that person was, and _those_ kinds of people are ultimately useless and parasitic to everyone around them cause they typically get out of doing their share of the work by stealing other people’s time and effort and acting like they did it all lol

In psych rn! Fun fact, the phenomenon when people put less work into projects when working in a group is called social loafing! This is the reason most people who don’t like working in groups hate group work.
Well I'd think that the people who hate group work would hate working in groups. Was that last sentence supposed to say that?
Thank you for the accurate terminology. From now on, I will call those kinds of people “social loafers” rather than “lazy asses”.
Or... When you get excluded from said group for no reason, when you were the one hyping everyone up because no one wanted to do shit to begin with... lol...
@@K.TH-cam2the last sentence is perfectly fine.
Yup! And the larger the group, the more social loafing is enabled. It infuriates me when my psych professors create environments for their students where such things are only increased (everyone gets the same grade, little/no feedback about others work, large groups)
This reminds me of a presentation a few jobs ago. It was our annual meeting with community partners and coalition members. My boss had everyone do a rehearsal presentation to him for ahead of time, he didn't show his work because "he was fine and didn't need approval". On the day of the annual meeting he presented right before I did. Why I say he shared my presentation, it was my exact presentation - the order of going through our issues, the exact wording of what I was going to say, he even used the exact jokes I had written in the same place. I was shocked and horrified. When he came off stage and it was time for me to go he even gave me a little smirk as he walked past. Oddly enough, I gave my presentation, with only minor ad libs, but a lot of enthusiasm and energy. I got bigger reactions, louder laughs, and bigger applause. I don't know if they didn't realize it was the same presentation. Maybe it was just unconsciously more interesting to hear from the person who did the work and knew the information. But I'll never forget it. People who don't do their work in school go on the being people who don't do their work as adults too.
Wow.....I hope he steps on an extension cord at night.
Holy shit. That's nasty af
Hope that dude is eating a big ol bowl of bull sh*t rn
Whoa hope you left that job yuck
Bosses are allowed to flat out assigning you creation of your presentation and then having you tell them what it should be and where. Why wouldn't he just do that? And then have you present a different topic or not present?
I'm in science and whenever we complain about group members all we get is a "but in real life you'd also need to make it work" talk. And of course the groups are always assigned randomly or pairing "weaker students" (aka those who never show up to class) with "more experienced" students...
When i complained in middle school that I was always left with doing all the work (i had all A's - except for a B in math - so obviously i got the group that wanted ME to do it all), my mom gave me the knowledge of ✨being a tattletale✨ she told me about the time she was left doing all the work for a project and she told the teacher that SHE was the one who did all the work and she got the A while the rest got failed for it. Idk how the teacher knew for sure it was all her, but sometimes teachers hust know shit, so i believe her
This reminds me of my first ever presentation at a corporate meeting. My boss was also supposed to present during this time but for a different topic. I was given very specific topics to put together. I pulled data and compiled all of this info/personal insights and innovation, etc. Here comes the day of the meeting. Boss asks to check out what I have for my presentation "out of curiosity" and I proceed to stupidly hand over my notes for him to give a once over. After a few minutes, he hands them back and says "well done, looks like you put in a lot of effort". We go up to present, I am supposed to say my part first. He steps in front of me and says "I'll just go ahead and go". THEN PROCEEDS TO TOUCH ON EVERY SINGLE TOPIC I WAS GOING TO DISCUSS, A LOT OF IT DAMN NEAR WORD FOR WORD, leaving me standing up there fuming. When he was done, he turns to me and says,"do you have anything to add or does that cover it?" That guy is now the bumbling District Manager for a rapidly failing company and I eventually wisened up and got the hell out. Now they are a sinking ship. Fuck people like that.
Hell yeah! You go!
JEEZ this made me mad just reading it!! I’m so angry this happened to you, but glad you got out!!
I wonder how it works if you introduce errors into the report so that anyone that steals it get rekt.
I would’ve outed him right then and there - well, no, you just presented all of my research that you reviewed a few moments ago. You have really great memorization skills 😄 photographic memory?
I would’ve brought it up to HR or the ethics board. You have a search history to prove your work, he probably just had porn on incognito 🙄
I'm a huge procrastinator and it's definitely a problem. I can also write a research paper the night before and get an A, but as soon as it's a group project where my work will effect other people, I will make sure everything is done a week in advance. Don't get me wrong, I hate group projects, but I refuse to be the one who drops the ball at the last minute.
Exactly. I can procrastinate on my own projects but when my work impacts someone else's grade it gets full attention and effort
Fr, if it just effects me, I will procrastinate until I die, but the moment it effects someone else, I will get on it immediately.
Same pretty much try to never screw over my group.
This is the exact reason I hate group projects, I can’t procrastinate😫
Same here
Group projects in school only taught me that teammates slow you down and it's better to do everything solo, that way everything can be completed in a way that is comprehensive and not lacking in an area where another person may end up not contributing.
It fosters individual responsibility and independence in one's own efforts to achieve a goal previously intended for 2 or more people to reach working together.
I always have milestone check ins with students on their group projects. I want to hear from the whole group who is responsible for what and how things are going BEFORE the day it’s due. This keeps things on track and gives us a chance to improve group dynamics.
Group work in school should be a good learning experience (especially for collaboration, delegation, and communication skills) not a hassle!
I’ll never forget the two classes I did the group projects by myself in. Not a single person in my group emailed anyone to even start until *8pm* the day before it was due. By then, I had already done and submitted the whole project alone lmao
Hope you didn't let them get credit, cuz I would've put my name on it and nothing else.
@@malachicarter712 I included in my submission that I'd done the whole assignment alone, so I doubt they got credit for it. The class went online for Covid around the same time, so I never saw them again either lol
Did you even bother to email them before you did the projects alone? Almost the same thing happened to me but I managed to corral my group members into contributing. We had 3 weeks to finish a presentation on a famous photographer and no one contacted anyone else for 2 weeks. Finally I just stepped in as leader and contacted everyone by group message (this was an online class for photography). In the end everyone contributed and we had the best presentation out of the class. I was actually prepared to do the project alone and leave my group members to sink but I also needed to cover myself and let them know so in case they brought it up later as an excuse like say, "No one told me anything or contacted me" . I wouldn't be held liable for their failings.
@@parrotcracker6629 Nah, but I get where you’re coming from. We were a group for the entire semester, and when the class was still in person they’d sit and watch soccer matches and stuff on their phones in class while I worked on “our” first project. They were borderline illiterate anyway, so I didn’t care much because I’d rather do it all myself and get a good grade. So, when the class went online and the had absolutely 0 face-to-face accountability to a teacher, I didn’t bother trying to rescue them a second time.
Plus, it was college at that point. I didn’t care a whole lot about rescuing teams in HS or whatever, but if you made it to college I’m not going to babysit you lmao
@@parrotcracker6629this is 100% how its handled properly! Great job! Always take the leadership position, if need be, and make sure people do their fair share! Contacting them to CYA was a great idea!!
Document everything in group projects! Meetings, times, what was discussed, whos working on what, who replies back or doesnt.
People put themselves in shit positions. But a leader will bring the best out of people who normally do shit work on their own! Kudos!!
Thats awesome. Similar thing happened to me (I’m a high school freshman), but google docs edit history doesn’t lie. Seeing their face when I ccd them on the email with the screenshots would have made my life.
I'm not sure: you did it or you didn't do it ? 🤔
They mean they wish they could have been present to see their faces when they saw the screenshots.@@shizukagozen777

As someone who wrote an essay literally 7 days past the due date and got an A. I don’t recommend not doing your homework right before it’s due nor after. Also NEVER do that on group assignments that doesn’t just make you a bad student it makes you a bad person.
And yes I got points deducted for it being exactly 7 days late. Without the deduction I would’ve had a 100, but with the deduction I got a 90. My teacher also said that my work was publishable with one more revision.. he is a published author and I hadn’t revised a single time.
I absolutely hate group projects, I used to love them, until I realized that most the time, you get matched with people who try to push work onto everyone else.
On my last willing project, I did 90% of the work, but we were individually graded despite the work being presented as ONE. And somehow, I was graded the lowest although our presentation was all of MY WORK that they were leeching off of.
I refused to do group work, I was so DONE.
I was much happier doing all that work myself and being out in the open, than people getting credit for what I did.
My grades weren't negatively impacted by the laziness of others after this, it made me more productive.
I am so happy to finally be done with schools in general.
Wasn't until grad school that I started having slightly more positive experiences with group projects. Totally different mentality and maturity when you are around people who actually wanna be there for their education.
This one group assignment got me with all the deadbeats who assumed I would just make all the slides and present. I just stood on stage pretending to have lost my voice to a cold and watched them questioned by the faculty. Petty and self destructive , yes. But worth it.
You are doing the lord's work, my friend. I wish I had thought of this before
I despised group work in school. We all saw what they were doing. Stick good student with the near-dropouts. Student won't cut their own nose, so even if it's a poor grade for them, they uplifted the dropouts enough to preserve the bell curve.
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, though. It doesn't matter how strong the strongest link is, the chain will still break as long as it has a weak link.
I had the same thing happen to me once - the person who went before me started my part of the presentation and I was so confused. I talked to the professor afterwards and it was ultimately fine but I was so annoyed.
Nah id have called them out in front of the class. Don't take my research as your own biatch
LITERALLY the exact same thing happened to me back when I was in college
So basically as part of engineering curriculum, we had to spend one month of summer vacation doing summer training. And during that month, all the students in groups of four have to visit an industrial/ construction area on a daily basis. where we will be as observers learning how things work in that area (work scope, work culture, safety regulations, etc…).
Me and three colleagues were going to a hospital that was under construction. And the construction manager was really supportive and welcoming and taught us a lot. HOWEVER, i was the only one who was writing notes at the time because each one of us will have to prepare a presentation about the things that he learned during his summer training and present it to the college professors.
NOW HERE IS THE REAL KICK IN THE NUTS, while preparing the presentation, one of my group members asked for my notes and I told him that the notes had plenty of information for both of us, as long he helps me with presentation preparation and he agreed.
BUT… on presentation day, i was supposed to be first but since the professor didn’t come in time, I thought that maybe i could go for a quick bath room break and I already told my colleague to call me once the professor arrives. Moments later, he called and told me that the professor came. But when I got there 😮… i got PISSED. NOT ONLY DID HE PRESENT BEFORE ME, BUT ALSO USED ALMOST ALL OF MY NOTES AS IF IT WAS HIS 😮. And the professor even told me as I entered “ wow he did such an amazing job, I can’t believe he managed to gather this much knowledge during the summer vacation”
That was my hard work!!!!!!!🤬
There was no way I was going to let that slide!!
So I told the professor right in front of everyone
“These were my slides and I have proof”
Then I proceeded to present what I have prepared (even though that guy already mentioned it)
Then after I left, that colleague HAD THE AUDACITY TO GET UPSET 😮. He said that what I did was not cool at all, and it made him look bad 🙄.
Wow
Back in college i had a guy who did this to me. He had a big ego and was always a show off. He didn't do any of the lab work and wanted all the presentation credit. He took my and another kids portion. I said nothing, other than tell the other kid to relax. Came to me. I threw in my USB, looked up, apologized to the class that there was going to be a repeat in information. And released a whole set of data and information that was not shared with the ah, motion to my other classmate to finish with a majority different conclusion. Professor wasnt happy and came to ask why we had a disjointed presentation. And I presented a copy of all the data sheets and student check ins and out. Including all the files the other students sent me, including all the major correspondence between my lab mates. All except... AH. AH didn't realize that the data set that he bullied out from another lab mate was missing the set he would have collected. He failed the assignment and the rest of my team got graded on the presentation that didn't include his bs. Twas grand. Professor was said "stealing other people's work and presenting it as your own is HIGHLY frowned upon in academia, especially in the medical field." And eyed AH so hard even though the class was marine biology.
The very end of that sentence killed me lmfao
My English teacher last year was the absolute best. The day before our presentation one of our group members had been doing absolutely nothing but playing games during class. I went up to my teacher after that class and let him know the situation, I showed him my slides and the history of the doc. I got a A, pretty sure he got a D
I have difficulties with working in groups and I've told that to all my teachers and my mentor. Almost everyone understood and let me do stuff alone, but some teachers just wouldn't listen and some ended so bad. I was one time in a group and I got a part for me to prepare, so I was preparing that only to hear that they wanted me to do something else. I have conditions which around that time made it almost impossible for me to adapt to a change so quick. So it just got mixed up and stuff, and I got mad but it was all over text and they wouldn't let me keep my part. Fast forward to presentation day, I had a hard time doing my stuff bc my head was all set to the part I was supposed to do in the first place. So the presentation went bad and after it, my group started complaining to the teacher, in front of me, that I almost didn't do anything and that they wanted me to get a different grade from them. AND THE TEACHER AGREED. I got a REALLY bad grade and I just left the classroom bc I was getting pretty upset and I just went home even though I had other classes that day. I was so mad because I told the teacher I'm not good in groups, then my subject was changed which I couldn't take due to that condition and then they started bragging about me that I was lazy?? In the end my mentor helped out and I could do it again and alone and got a good grade, but man that was crazy. I'm going to a new school and I really hope they understand.
Bruh, that deserves an A+, my dude.
Pretty sure that's a woman
@@yan_dj I use dude as a gender neutral term.
@@yan_djpretty sure they would know that
I had a similar situation in uni. I was doing a group project with four other girls and we had to make a presentation and then show it to the class where we would get a shared grade.
I wasn't normally there, so I didn't know anyone particularly well, but three of the girls were best friends from school and the other was deaf and didn't speak to anyone. I knew sign language so I worked with the deaf girl while the three others laughed off the project and said they'd "get it done".
Come the day of the presentation, they had submitted nothing and all three of them had mysteriously disappeared. So the deaf girl removed their names from all the documents and slides and I presented. An hour later, we got a message from them in a group chat asking how "we'd " done and I said that we'd got 84%, which was an A. The next morning, they received their grades, which were all 0%. They asked what happened and I just said "you didn't complete the project, simple as." I never saw them again, but I still speak to the deaf girl a lot now. We both graduated together this year. It turned out that the three girls did this a lot and subsequently had to repeat their year.
THATS BETTER THAN I COULD EVER DO
I had to tell you I cross posted this to my threads (IG) because I LOVE it. I have never in my life heard of the shaming disgrace with terms "sophomore - junior" & "junior - senior." And this kind of sh*t happened to me often throughout my time in academia. ❤ Please keep making killer awesome art and being an honorable art historian! 😊
Also... Never forget about Brutus.
I hate those types of people on projects because they get all mad that they got no points for not doing anything when you bring it up with your teacher. I'm all for procrastinating on my own work, but not when there's other people involved with the grade.
You literally just said the exact thing as the comment two above yours and a month before yours. Idk why people like you exist? If you are old enough to write a sentence you should be old enough to know copying is so first grade. And even they know it's lame. Are you that desperate for likes and comments for validation,. And do you think nobody else is going to see the other comment written before yours? Literally two above yours?😂😂
That's why you always go first in group presentations. No one can steal your shit if you go first. And then watch them struggle their way through their part, only jumping in at the very end when the professor starts asking questions, because you also did their part and can actually answer these questions.
but the person who ended up getting exposed did go first. idunno how they stole this lady’s stuff i guess she shared it with the group ?
@@RedPilledAsFuckyep, and it seems like they stole it when they ran back to add it in and thats why op's group should have gone in first, it leaves no chances for the slacker to save themselves
@@spacetofu5306The problem with that logic is that only one member per group can follow it unless you’re all presenting simultaneously
Considering that it sounds like the slides were in a specified chronological order, they probably would have gone before OP during the presentation either way. The only hope would have been the group going first so that the slacker didn’t have any time-but since the slacker went directly to the professor, they essentially forced the group’s hand.
Honestly, what it sounds like happened is that the slacker waited until the last possible minute/possibly forgot to do it, panicked when they saw they didn’t have nearly enough material, making it was obvious that they didn’t put much work in-so they attempted to throw OP under the bus by padding out their part with OP’s material, making _them_ look like the underprepared one.
@@bean6803lol, I probably would’ve butted in and been like “Um, excuse me, I believe that’s MY part, I would like to be the one to present it, please and thank you.”
"which SUUUUUUCKKEDDD"
That is so real.
Reminds me of my latin class. We did a group project and i was in charge of the art, someone did research and another person did the essay. As it turns out, the guy that did the essay completely plagiarized the entire thing and we had to come in after school and each turn in our own essay. I turned in a terrible essay, looked at the teacher and was like "i only did the art, this is all i know."
He gave me pity points 😂
Something similar happened when I was in college. On presentation day for my medical physiology class, the guy that was in charge of submitting our presentation, created a new one by himself. He didn't say a word to any of us about it prior. I was LIVID because I'd spent hours creating a good presentation and he just tossed it. So when it's my turn to speak, I'm speechless, because idk what I'm even looking at or where to start. What he created wasn't visually engaging and was extremely vague. He then takes over and begins talking for me, which makes me look unprepared. This pissed me off even more, because I couldn't even fake it and just present what was there. I'm an introvert and to public speak is already nerve-wracking, so I'd meticulously planned everything I was going to say.
Anyway, after class, I immediately emailed the professor and sent the original presentation that we ALL agreed on 2 days prior, as well as highlighted what my section was. I also offered to come in and present on my own, so she'd know I was prepared. Oh! I forgot to mention, she immediately entered the grades in after class and gave me a C. After reading my email, she spoke with the Dean of the College of Health Sciences (which I didn't know she'd do) and I was given an A.
That was a huge lesson for me in so many ways. From then on, I final submitted every group project I ever worked on in college lol. It also taught me to advocate for myself. Had I left it alone, I would've gotten a C. And finally, I learned to overcome, somewhat, being an introvert. I still hate large social gatherings, but I forced myself to take on more public speaking opportunities, and even worked a job that required me to talk extensively to people.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk
I'm always surprised on how widespread this archetype is. "The one person from the group assignment that does nothing and tries to f*ck you over" is an omnipresent entity no matter your country or culture.
Then you are or were probably shy and not only an introvert, being introverted is an personality trait and being shy more of a fear, you can overgome being shy, ehat you did, but to overgome being an introvert would mean you would change your personality what is really hard and takes a very long time, like years to see the smallest changes. What you now feel is being introverted what you felt back than was being shy
I did this, was called a Karen by my prof and still given a C. I HATE group projects with a passion.
It’s amazing how it takes such a small number of people to mess up everything for the majority.
I've had teachers who'd grade us ALL as a group, no exceptions. Such a dumb rule.
We had a Spanish project where we had to perform a Spanish scene of some skit we watched. I had a group with 1 girl and 2 native Spanish speaking dudes. You'd think since they were native Spanish speakers this would be the easiest for them. The ENTIRE TIME we worked on the script, all they did was talk to each other and not help at all. Whenever we asked them to do one basic task, they would need to be reminded multiple times in the same class period. We asked them to proofread and they did it for maybe less than a min, and we still found grammatical errors.
Anyways, the biggest rule was we were not allowed to use notecards when performing. Not only did these bozos not memorize their parts, but they ALSO read EVERYRHING off the script.
The professor gave all of us an 80. I asked why and he told me it's because those two didn't memorize their part. I asked how that's my fault, and he said we should have kept them in check since it's a "team effort." DUDE HOW WERE WE SUPPOSED TO KNOW THESR NATIVE SPANISH SPEAKERS WERE GONNA READ OFF THE SCRIPT. We were not even informed about this "group grade" policy beforehand. I was so proud of my part too...
I had a situation like this once and it is the biggest shame of my entire life, the only time I was a narc. I would have probably failed if I had not said anything, that said it is definitely something I would not brag about, and my biggest regret in college and likely in much of my life. To be fair I did not go full narc but I was pissed at my groupmates.
I remember this happening to me and some others in my CAD class when I went to college. I was majoring in Fashion Design and my CAD class was partnering up with a CAD class in a college in Mexico. Me and a few of my classmates were paired with a few students from that class and we were tasked with creating a collection that incorporated influences from both locations. My classmates and I busted our asses with little to no communication and contribution from the other class (not because of a language barrier, they just weren't talking to us) and when it came time to present our project, they used our work and lazily put it together to use it as theirs. This was apparently an issue with everyones' groups in the class and needless to say, I and everyone in my class was upset about it. Our teacher ended confronting their teacher about it and I think they got reprimanded for it.
“It happened to be a group project, which SUCKED-“
Relatable asf 😭😭😭
As someone who CAN write an essay in a day, and has written at least 20 essays in a day that got an A, I wouldn't wait that long in a group project, and I certainly wouldnt steal anyones woek like that! Im so very sorry that anyone even considered doing that :(
The years I could write an essay the night before and get an A were also the years in which I was not doing well mentally
I’ve had many group projects in my 23 years, and despite attending college the one seared into my memory was my 10th grade chemistry project. Because the teacher forced us to make a music video in which we had to write song lyrics explaining a chemistry topic, sing them, and cut together footage of us providing visual aides. Doing all the work because my partners were extremely lazy was the least of my problems for that project, I had to _sing._ With no backup or harmonizing with my group like I asked, which would have disguised the fact that we aren’t singers, we were teenagers recording on a very crappy built in laptop mic. So when the entire class burst into laughter at how bad the singing quality was, I was alone in my shame. It lasted 5 minutes, and they didn’t stop laughing _once._
Our teacher was nice, but that project was so evil that it overshadowed every nice thing she ever did. That shit *_haunts_* me. Even if I got my partners docked severely for not helping, nothing could ever fix that rare moment of public humiliation for me.
Ooh I had that in Microbio in college. It wasn't the one that scarred me but I empathize. Ms. G was a jerk too - announced "If you've entered this lab you're already covered in MRSA, lets talk about MRSA and how it kills grandmas in their beds"....er...thanks Ms. G....
Holy crap man. That must've hurt. 😢
That just sounds like the teacher is severely unintelligent about social shit :T
Forcing kids to sing? Bitch I play guitar for a reason you know I can't do that!
That definitely something I would of thought would be a great idea if I was a professor.... not proud of myself.
That's why I would always ask to just do the entire project myself, I didn't care about the work load. I'd rather do the extra work and pass then have to potentially lose more points on the assignment because someone didn't do their part.
They dont allow that because the whole point is to assess your ability to work as a team. I know - sucks, especially for introverts. Look out for some education studies that discuss the overrepresentation of extroverted teaching, grading, and assessment methods. Its slowly being recognised as harmful by education academics.
@@aliasilver_636I wish they actually acknowledged that in my school. I recently had a project and I ended up doing most of the work. Of course, I informed the teacher in charge but she'll probably give them the same marks as I'll get. This is why I hate working in a group
I had luck with this once. We were in pairs and I got paired with a student who showed up maybe 10% of the time. I immediately asked to do the project alone cause she wasn't in class when it was assigned lol. I got a decent grade and really didn't feel bad.
@@peeshiepooshie3734 You really got lucky
@@aliasilver_636 not necessarily -- it's easier to grade 12 projects than 36. Most teachers I know assign group work because it's easier for them to stay on top of, especially if it's a bigger assignment or class in general.
It was a long time ago but I clearly remember started writing my dissertation at 4pm the day before it was due at noon. I finish it at 10am, started printing it, took a shower, grabbed it and drove to Uni, arrived at 11:30, took it to be bound and arrived at the faculty office at 11:55 to hand it in. It was a pile of shit but I still got a 2:1.

Hate group projects all you want but this is gold material for your entry level job interviews.

I've had nearly the opposite experience in a group and it's just as bad. I told them I was certified in html and I was the only one who did web development before, but they wouldn't allow me to do the backend. I ended up doing frontend. Finished everything, got my presentation together, and then went in one day to work on it and when I opened up my laptop, all my work was deleted...they deleted all my work...they wanted a blank white page over what I did...I- I'll never get over this.

Still a great experience tbh but they assumed I was just a dumb black girl...
I had something similar happen to me in high school. It was the most frustrating and embarrassing thing I have ever experienced. I HATE group assignments.
Nah that guy did rookie numbers, real champions write their essay an hour before it’s due and still get by on a B minimum.
Never did I have trouble on group projects, either because I convinced the teacher to leave me present alone or because I told every "team mate" that I'll do everything and just give them the exact info they had to memorize in exchange of money.
From a former adjunct professor - I despise group projects. I always made a point of making sure that each group member has a piece of their own.

I did ONE group project in uni and we were only two people. Here you have 3 chances to pass, and she was the type of person who would just not submit an exam if she didn't think she could get the highest. I actually threatened her with telling the professor EVERYTHING, contacting administration and borderline violence if she didn't do her part so we could submit. The amount of calls I got(we lived in different cities) because she had a "breakdown because she didn't know what to write" was insane. I basically did the entire project, we both ended up with the highest possible grade, I'm still so incredibly salty about that
HAHHAHA THEY'RE LITERALLY ME!!!!
Seriously though, group projects are a pain. I'm someone who does extremely well on my own. I hated being in a group because sometimes I'm the group leader because I'm "smart" even though I'm someone who doesn't do well telling people what to do or asking for opinions of what to do because i feel shy doing so. However, i do excell in getting the job done if I'm told to what to do or if I'm alone. I just hate being at the center and tell people what not to do. It feels extremely wrong to tell people they shouldn't do something.
Pretty much the point of group projects, it's supposed to teach you how to work together and overcome your anxieties about it. Sounds like you would've benefited from more group projects to practice that

This is why I used the Google Doc format for the every project. Google doc lets multiple people use any essay and everyone can even choose what color to represent themselves. Then on the Google doc everyone write what their task is and what each deadline for each task is. Most projects are due in 3 months more or less so I make deadlines for each step. I always started these right away so I wouldn’t be overwhelmed later on. Usually never have an issue with these and everyone’s email is connected so no one can deny their access and participation. The only issue are older adults who are not tech savvy. They usually just write things in pen and paper and I take a photo and add it to google doc. People usually like stuff like this because it means they have a guide and specific expectations. Lazy people get noticed with proof for not contributing and it WILL be brought up with the professor. I don’t play. I take myself too seriously because I need to get crossfaded once a week. I don’t got time to do someone else’s work 🍻

@@ErroneusEPIt's an old joke about those poorly written internet stories, I forget exactly how it goes but you can definitely look it up
It's a tumblrisim for a common scary story trope. "The car broke down! There's a man outside! He's got a hook for a hand!" That sort of thing. @@ErroneusEP
Great on you. I’m happy to hear you didn’t need to worry about your work getting copied and stolen from you.
I completely understand group projects are intended to help you imrpove your ability to work with others but i've never had a group project go well (until I got to uni but even then...), like in school I was usually left to do all the work because I put my head down and didn't mess around. I was also always picked last for groups so I'd end up being some team's last pick or be an extra member because of odd numbers. Eventually I started asking the teachers if I could just go solo and it was crazy how much quicker I could work, how much more work I was getting done, and how much higher of a grade I was getting x'D I think the teachers started to just ignore me in the end if I was the odd one out because they knew I would do good solo work so didn't feel the need to find a group who would take me haha. It was lonely but i enjoyed only having myself to rely on for getting everything done
When I first scrolled to this I was distracted and I thought you said something about "academic horses".
I suddenly became very interested. I was slightly disappointed that this wan't about equine scholars, but I loved the painting.
sadly i went to college for illustration and not equine education. Maybe ill do my masters in that
This is is why I'm so glad that all my college tutors not only took note of who was doing which part in a chosen group topic beforehand but they also asked for our work to be printed out and put on a name labelled pendrive too.
They made it clear on every group project that they would grade everyone in the group seperately based on how well each of us did our part.
We were never expected to do anymore than our fair share, but if we did then we got extra credit while anyone who didn't pull their weight had to do their bit again plus present it to the class by themselves.
So you basically got two chances and if you didn't do it then you got a bad mark, simple as that.
For someone who can barely draw a stick figure, being able to paint like in the video seems almost supernatural. Well done.
Am I the only one when I first saw it saying:
"STICH!"
With SUCH confidence😭😭
In Germany we got this wonderful saying to represent the people that don't do shit in a team. You gotta love the sarcastic aggressiveness.
TEAM
T.oll
E.in
A.nderer
M.achts
(Basically the starting letters of TEAM align with the words meaning "Great, someone else is dong it!"😅)
Yeah…I’m totally stealing that expression, too.
I love that the germans always have a aggressive sarcastic term for anything and everything. Makes the kanguage really fun
@@seraphywang4638 The language of Schadenfreude…😂
That is amazing
Which is why it would be the best to grade the students individually even in group projects. Had some projects like that. I'm not the most hardworking but still do my job type of person and I think that is the best. No pressure that my performance would affect the group either. Thankfully even the laziest members in my groups never steal someone's point. Guess some peope have no shame
