This material addresses the question of the groupwork. The reading passage suggests that working in a team is beneficial both for the task to be done and for the team members. The lecturer, on the other hand, refutes this information by stating that relevant practical experience is problematic.
To begin with, the reading passage highlights that all the members of a group benefit from being involved in it since their work is seen and acknowledged. Meanwhile, the professor casts doubt on this and argues that the members of a team who do not work as hard are in the same position as the ones who contrbute seriously to the work. Therefore, the latter will be unhappy to work in a team since the recognition for the positive outcome is spread on each member of the team.
Additionally, the article posits that a group may perform tasks faster and with better quality since more knowledgeable and experienced workers are involved /in it/. However, the professor advocates a different approach and provides the following details. Namely, he mentions that it takes more time to accomplish a task by working in a group inasmuch as consensus among group members may be reached only after several discussions.
Finally, the author invites attention to the fact that employees benefit from being involved in a group since the responsibility for the actions of a group lies on a group as a whole. This goes counter to the information in the listening passage, according to which, a few members of a team may influence the decisions of a team whereas the negative outcomes of those decisions unfairly will apply to all the group members.
