▶ Your Answer :
The lecturer discusses the drawback of studying
in groups by contradicting reading passages. This is not an efficient way of
studying, on top of that it is a waste of time for some students and not a fair
way. This contradicts the reading passage’s claim that studying in group is a
beneficial approach to soar up each member’s potential of proficiency.
To begin with, studying in groups will not
motivate every each member, because some students will be likely to stop doing
their asssignments or even attending on time. It will hamper the development of
motivation and encouragement of other members. This inefficiency of group
studying thus refutes the reading passage’s argument that being with others
will be motivated more and helps members to motivate each other.
On top of that, studying in groups is not reciprocal,
but unequal. Some students will feel free with their loading which is
attributed to the reason that a characteristic of group studying is not a compulsory activity. They can also rely on
prepared member, who will be frustrated with time and energy-consuming. This inequality
rebuts the reading passage’s assertion that every members can share, explain,
and learn cooperatively and additionally teaching others can increase the
academic proficiency themselves.
Finally, participating in study group is a
waste of time for some smarter students. This is attributed to the reason that they
have more possibility to prepare studying materials than other students
relatively. And this inequality will be a burden to some students, and it will
lead to the time-consuming work. This not fair scarification contradicts the
reading passage’s argument that group study can split the energy of searching
materials of discussion, so it is fairly effective way to saving time. |
