I’m often a member of an assigned group for my class.
How do I ensure I don’t get accused of cheating with anyone
on the final project we turn in?
- Be sure to review your faculty member’s guidelines for
group work carefully. If you have concerns, be sure to ask your
faculty member for clarification. This is an excellent chance
to get to know your professor and will likely help everyone in
the class who probably has the same questions you do.
- Examine the criteria that will be used to evaluate the project.
- Many times a group project includes drafts handed in by individual
members. If this is the case, you will have a chance to demonstrate
your work individually as well as with the group as a whole.
If you do your work carefully, in all likelihood you have nothing
to worry about. Of course, if you witness a group member plagiarizing,
you should let your faculty member know to ensure you are not accused
of dishonest behavior also.
