Don\u2019t stress! Our PLAs are here to share their insider info on making your group work journey as hassle-free as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do focus on the big picture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While group work can feel challenging at the time, figuring out how to navigate uni assignments with your peers is a wonderful way to develop valuable skills for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn nearly every job you will be working as part of a team, with each team member having their own responsibilities\u201d says Ashley. \u201cGroup work gives you practice for working on a smaller part of a whole, whilst also building resilience for dealing with challenging people and situations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also become a better communicator, says Amy. \u201cEven if you feel like you would get better grades by yourself, doing group work forces you to think carefully about your own ideas and explain them to other people. This is a type of personal development that simply cannot be obtained on your own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/24FVIYV226vScTh3Sn\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t try to do it all<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you a natural leader (with a tendency to do all the work yourself)? Don\u2019t fall into this trap, warns Jess. \u201cAll students are&nbsp;capable of creating fantastic work \u2013 but some can feel intimidated, and may not contribute as much in fear that they&#8217;ll do something wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how can you avoid this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re like me and usually take the lead in a group, here\u2019s my advice,\u201d says Jess. \u201cSupport your team by asking them how they\u2019re going. Build camaraderie, value everyone\u2019s contribution, and encourage them to speak on major decisions. It creates a better teamwork experience and often yields high results!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/l4EoRqcypxsvGuRk4\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do establish a communication strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that you and your group members are responsible for deciding when and how to communicate with each other \u2013 and communication is key to group assignments. \u201cYou need to make the time and space to work together,\u201d says Pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shannon explains how she kept in touch with three of her classmates for a large Company Law project. \u201cWe met at the same time each week via Facebook Messenger to discuss the assignment and work on it together using OneDrive to track each other\u2019s changes. Making a consistent time to meet helped keep us accountable. We broke the assignment into parts and each worked on our allocated section \u2013 but because we could all see what the others were doing we could jump in to help as needed. Throughout the week we kept in contact via our Facebook chat. We actually became good friends because of this!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/eg9UMthX68nJgZ99lk\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t be afraid to speak up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What if the worst happens and you find yourself in a team where others aren\u2019t pulling their weight? Be firm with communication, says Olivia. \u201cIt&#8217;s not acceptable for one person to do the majority of the work while others aren\u2019t contributing. Consult with your lecturer or tutor for advice, or meet up (virtually or in-person) to create a study plan for completing the assignment together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI had a very unfair group work situation in my first year,\u201d says Megan. \u201cFrom this experience I learnt that if there are group problems, see your tutor as soon as you can! Tutors understand the difficulties of group work and can help to resolve issues early. Many tutors might ask you to complete and sign a group agreement \u2013 take this seriously as it is your chance to set and agree to ground rules.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do be kind<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBeing kind and patient goes a long way,\u201d says Amy. Sometimes, differences in schedules and priorities are unavoidable. \u201cAlways try to assume the best in others and be flexible with your ideas of when\/how things should be done.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/WOIGpnJ3ye445BUQl4\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>And remember, the PLAs are here to support you with whatever you need \u2013 be it time management, help understanding an assignment question, or even strategies for overcoming a challenging interpersonal situation. <a href=\"https:\/\/lms.latrobe.edu.au\/course\/view.php?id=57964&amp;section=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Drop-in<\/a> to see a PLA today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Got a group assignment coming up?
