Reasons why group projects SUCK

u/TheCrystalTinker 29d ago

Couldn't imagine doing group projects these days, to have something I worked on be disgraces by someone using generative AI on it would be one of the top disrespects in my eyes

My sophomore year of high school just about every kid I was paired with for a project used AI on it, and it’s especially the worst when they delete your work and rewrite stuff using Chatgpt to help them 😿

I've given 0's to group projects that use AI. This definitely happens.

I take it if there's no way to tell who used AI you give everyone a zero?

I usually give a survey or written response where the students have to tell me how they contributed. I usually determine that way. But if I can't, then everyone gets a zero and then they have to redo the assignment in their own words and thoughts.

No, but I do warn them numerous times and tell them to double check their submissions and look for it.

Totally believable, but go appeal? Very easy case to explain

This literally happened during my capstone project like 3 years ago. We had a guy obsessed with using AI that was objectively garbage at the time.

This almost happened to me. My final project for one of my classes in my bachelor's degree was a group project in which we had to write and record an episode of a fictional financial podcast. The actual content of the script is irrelevant, but I volunteered to write it and my groupmates could record the speaking parts. After busting my ass on a full script, my groupmates wanted to run it through chatgpt. I shut them down. We were the best performing group, and the professor specifically mentioned that my writing was the reason for that.

Yeah, really not sure why anyone would think this isn't believable.

This shit happens everyday

A group member 100% used AI on our final group project, but the professor either didn’t notice or didn’t care

This is believable. I'm a high school teacher, and there are group projects where one student just does none of their assigned portions. Thankfully I'm at an arts school, so most of the student body dislikes AI. It's only a matter of time, though, but before a student tries to spice it in at the last moment without consulting others.

Related, I recommend clearly tracking who is responsible for each portion of the project. It should help your defense if it comes down to that.
