Popis: Group work is frequently used in undergraduate health sciences education to help students become accustomed to working with others because the healthcare industry increasingly values and requires interprofessional collaboration to accomplish its aims. However, many students have reservations about group work, which inhibits a positive educational experience before the group members meet for the first time. In order to achieve academic excellence, most students would agree that group work detracts from having complete control over one’s grades. Thus, group work becomes a significant source of anxiety because one must rely on the work of others and relinquish total control over the process used to complete assignments.
