I know the group is working well together when I see the power points already organized and ready for the presentation day. I also know because we discuss how we will present it and when they ask me questions on how to do a certain thing.

If there is a disagreement within the group, I find it helpful to think about their perspective and make a reasonable change so we can make an agreement.

If the group is not productive, we can talk it out and give them notice so they can get back on track in order to get things moving in the right direction.

I show others that I truly value their contributions by thanking them and complimenting their hard work. I like to thank people for hard-working since it shows that they care about their grades and others.
