Nowadays many high schools and universities require students to work on projects in groups, and all members of the group receive the same grade (mark) on the project. Do you agree or disagree that giving every member of a group the same grade is a good way to evaluate students? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Be sure to use your own words. Do not use memorized examples.

things they do not know. It is

therefore

very critical to understand whether marking

students

with the same grade is the right way or not. Some may argue that all members of a

group

should be graded equally, but some think

otherwise

. From my perspective, I disagree with the statement and believe that each fellow should be monitored individually. I strongly feel

this

way for two main reasons, which I shall delve into in the following essay. To commence with, grading

students

in an equal way will negatively impact the student's learning process.

Instead

of learning from their mistakes,

one

may think that since he/she got the same grades, they would feel equivalent to others in the

group

.

This

,in turn, would cause them to misinterpret the areas they lack educationally.

For example

, I was part of a

group

, told to carry out a biology project for the class. We as a

group

did what we were asked and received similar grades.

One

day, during a surprise visit by the head professor, asked our teacher to demonstrate the biology projects. We got on with the explanation and halfway through he stopped us and corrected all our mistakes. Individualised grading is crucial so we do not repeat the same mistake again and learn from it.

Secondly

, most of the

students

would fail to understand the concept of hard

work

, if everyone in a

group

gets the same mark. In a

group

, there are two types of people,

one

is the hardworking

kind

and the second the lethargic, lazy

kind

. The hardworking

kind

will do most of the

work

wanting to score a perfect grade,

whereas

the lazy

kind

will depend on the former to complete their

work

too.

Such

kind

of sincerity to an assignment will definitely put more load on the former

group

of people. For a team to function efficiently, each member must provide adequately for the success of the

group

.

For example

, ants always go in

one

line, find food and each will load food back to its nest. Grading equally,

students

will never understand that with only hard

work

and sweat comes success in life. In conclusion, I believe that

students

be graded individually

,
