Assignment Details

Decisions made in groups tend to be more robust because they take into account thoughts and ideas that an individual person may not have alone. However, group decisions can also be subject to bias such as groupthink, where individuals conform to what the whole group thinks rather than disagreeing or presenting alternatives.

• Think of a time when you were part of a group that needed to make a decision. This could be a decision made at work, school, or with friends or family:

Discuss the situation and the group decision.

How would the decision have been different if you had made it yourself?

• Do you feel that your group came to a better decision than you would have by yourself?

When replying to other students, consider discussing the following:

How your experience compares to theirs

The differences between your group your peers’ group

The decision you would have made for your peers’ group situation
