I would rather complete an individual assignment because in a group you can't really do things your way and many times not everybody participates. Also because I don't really enjoy presenting.

I would rather complete an individual, in-class assignment. This way we can work in school and at home.

I would work cooperatively on a class assignment rather than complet an indevidual assignment like a test or essay because i like group work better. If you work as a group you get more variety in answers and choose which one youd like to put other than feeling like you've got the wrong answer. It also works best for people who do not like tests

I would rather work on an individual assignment because I feel like I work better alone and don't get distracted from the task as easily.

i know i had to choice only one but to me it really doesn’t matter as long as if i wereto do a group, and create a presentation i would like to pick my group members because i will be able to know who can do what and actually trust the people i choice .and if i were doing a single assignment i wouldn’t mind as well because i work very well alone.

i would rather do a group project with a presentation because it is much more active and in a group project you will be constantly active looking up things writing them dowwn comparing notes so that we will have a much better idea if we do not understand somthing.

because i work alot better when im in a group and if i need help with somthing i can ask my group. I also feel like it takes off alot of stress from students because then can get the project done quicker and i think a group project comes out better because there are more suggestions.

I would rather to work cooperatively with a group and create a perention beacuse it goes faster and you other poeple with differnet ideas and you can split up the work evenly with the oter group mates in your table.

If I were given the choice, I'd rather [B] work cooperatively with a group, and create a presentation.
I chose this because i like working with my group. I feel like I can get more things done when I am working with people, and together when we put all of our ideas together, it works out really well. I like presenting with a group as well.

I would rather work cooperative;y with a group, and create a presentation. This is so the work is divided evenly, and since more minds are working together, there will be a better outcome.

I would choose answer b because it determines what you know and dont know alot about as an indivisual. If you find out for yourselve that you dont know alot of things then you can always ask or find out on your own. In a group it is not that challenging because the other people can do the work for you.

I would rather work cooperatly with a group because I beleive that it is more of a fun way to get the work done. While in a group, each person gets a job to do, not just yourself, and we all have different ideas and opinions. And presentations are fun and educational because we all learn different things about each groups project.

I think we should complete an individual in-class assignment because the groups didn't work that good last time because a group member was absent or a group member change classes. So i think a individual assignment is better.

If I was given a chance to complete an assignment I would rather work cooperatively, working in a group takes a lot of stress off you and you have more ideas due to more people working with u. You can also ask for help if you need any but I don't like presenting in front of the class alone it's okay if you have to present as a group.

i would rather work on an individual task because not everyone would participate and i dont like presenting AT ALL. also by doing it by yourself, you can see how the student performs themselves instead of guessing that everyone did a good job based on a group project :]

If I was given the choice, I would rather a)complete an individual, in-class assignment, like a test or an essay, etc. I do not get along with people when it comes to projects. I think its because I am a control freak and have to have everything to be perfect and my way. Therefore the only way for that to happen is for me to work alone by myself. Plus I am very shy and get stage fright when it comes to presenting. Therefore my grade suffers because of presenting (so i rather not present anything).
