摘要:In attempting to give students the opportunity to work on group projects with other students, yet
ensuring students receive the marks that they each deserve, a management strategy for dealing
with group work initially proposed by Ford and Morice (2003) was implemented. The present
paper discusses the implementation of this strategy with its positive and negative outcomes.
While good students were, not surprisingly, happy to receive the marks they deserved and while
some of the benefits of group work were gained, there were problems that led to resentment and
hostility from some students. Suggestions for improving the strategy and an initial attempt to
implement the revised strategy are also discussed.
