Group Challenges

The main challenge that I find when working with a group on a project for a class is matching up the schedules of group members and finding time to meet.  In college, students have a variety of class schedules and other activities that can make them really busy.  In addition, it is very rare to find two students with a similar schedule.  In this project, we had to collaborate with four different people's schedules in order to find free time.  Fortunately, our schedules were pretty similar and we were able to find enough time to meet.  In addition, my group worked well on their own time in order to get the group work done and the final product finished in a good amount of time.  Another challenge is the similarity or dissimilarities of writing styles in a project such as this one.  Four people putting work into one paper could cause for a very choppy, un-unified paper.  Again though, my group did a good job at meshing our parts together as well as making it sound like one unified paper.  If I could have done this project individually, it would have been a lot more work on my shoulders, but the outcome would have been on my time and in a single writing style.
