Image that if a professor wants students to learn as much as possible about a project in a short period of time, it is better to work in a group or it is better to let students study alone? Which one is better?

From kindergarten to college,

students

always need to

group

together for a variety of activities,

such

as sports competitions and studying presentations. Some

students

prefer to

study

in a

group

, while others would like to

study

by themselves.

This

essay will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of

this

issue and give my opinions at the end of the essay. On the one hand,

students

who like to

study

alone might think that it is inefficient to work with other

people

.

For example

,

people

will have a lot of disputes and opinions during the discussion, and it will waste a lot of time to achieve a consensus.

Furthermore

, not everyone will take a serious attitude toward the projects. It is unfair for those who make an effort to do the projects and get the same scores as others who just do nothing. In order to avoid the “free rider” problem, some

students

would rather

study

by themselves.

On the other hand

, it is beneficial for

students

who don’t have many opinions to

study

in a

group

.

For instance

, since

people

are all unique, everyone has a distinctive point of view on different issues, and they can get different thoughts from other

people

and do some brainstorming together in a

group

.

In addition

, if they face some problems and get stuck, it will be helpful for them to work with others, and they might receive some useful advice. In conclusion, as far as I am concerned, I prefer to

study

in a

group

. Because I think

people

are not perfect, the only way to improve ourselves is to learn from other

people

. In

this

way, we can become better

people

.
