Lesson 5: Working with others

Time works differenty with groups

Time management

We talked about time management in an earlier module, but it is important here too. Your ability to manage time affects your learning, yes, but also the rest of your class. It makes group work difficult, prevents a deep discussion in class, and may affect the flow of instruction from your professor.

For more information on managing your time, you can read this section in this online textbook:

Groupwork

Groupwork is common in both college and workplaces. It can also be difficult. Being able to work in a team is one of the skills employers mention most often.
