Its all about who not to team up with !!!


And this is the latest talk of the town where town stands for the not so old group of 60. One term down, we are all eligible and informed enough to have a view on who is a good team player and who is not. With stats submissions just a couple of hours away, what would be a better way of easing out the tension than cursing those who didn't bother to even show their faces when work was in progress.

So here is what I have gathered through all this and through my personal experiences with my groups.

-> There are those who perform extremely well in quizzes and individual assignments; they may not be good to work with, too self centered they are.

-> There are those who are discussing what the project would look like, throughout the term; they may not be good to work with, too imaginative : that is just what they are.

-> There are those who keep pestering you to finish this and that and are very particular about deadlines; they may not be very good to work with. Facilitators: that is all they are.

-> There are those who carry an air of sincerity and they are absolutely USELESS.

This leaves us with a handful of productive heads, people who will work and let others work. And forming a group out of them is the task at hand for the 5 terms to follow. Providence of God, Watch over us ....
