Writing in a group

So for our first document we are writing in a group. I have to say I am not really a fan. Before I give my reasons why though I'd like to first point out the positive aspects of it. For one, it does help students get to know each other. I find that in academic situatiuons,  complete strangers are less likely to reach out to each other if they need help. This gives people a chance to break the ice and get to know each other, which facilitates group stdy sessions and even friendships that can extend beyond the classroom. However, from my personal point of view, I don't like to rely on other people for a portion of my grade or even for my schedule. I like to be in complete control of the events going on in my life, so I have never been keen on group work. If Ihave a project I can set my own timeline and know that I will get it done when it needs to be done. Writing in a group though you have to plan around other peoples schedules, writing styles, dedication to the work, willingness to be punctual, etc. I don't find myself trusting enough in other people to get what they need done when they need it done.
