Worst exp. on a collab/group project?
Week 104 Group Rant

There was this uni project where the teacher gave us a project to work as a team (the entire class, 17 people). We were meant to use Scrum, and deliver the first release in 1 week.

Turns out no one except me did the work, and this went on in the upcoming sprints, even with me telling the teacher what was going on.

Then, one day, a girl (let's call her Rose) did a commit to git, and I thought that something as going to change...She committed and push a new line at the end of a file.

After 2 months, the project was done. I had done 4k+ lines of Java EE + Hibernate + JSP code (which was very difficult to me) and the grading came out. I got a 7... most of the rest of the class got an 8 or 9. They did nothing.

When questioned by me, teacher said (it was a group project...)

TL;DR: I did the work of 17 people in a university project, got the worst grade of them all.

    i heard university is supposed to prepare you for the real world.
    i see that sometimes it's actually true

    @Midnigh-shcode yes. and part of preparing for the real world is to fight for your rights.

    Definitely put a complaint in and point out that you told your teacher that you were the only one doing any work during the project. Thanks to git you can prove that you committed the bulk of the code with only one extra line added by someone else.

    You deserve a better grade, like a 10!

    Depending on what you discussed with the teacher he is completely right. Did you suggest other things to him which would have worked otherwise?
    Did you stop working after a sprint? (because as long as somebody does the work nobody will help)

    Teacher probably slept with the girl students... You didn't do your blow job, you get less grade

    Just so you guys know. This is not the first time that this happens at my uni, and I am not the only one.

    The thing about this particular project that annoys me the most, is that even with all the evidence, the professor said that "I was not able to communicate with others" and "You should have talked with someone..."

    So, I guess I was in the wrong, right?...

    @deadpyxel lol, so others got better marks because they obviously communicated with relevant people and got someone to do the work. See, you couldn't do that right. *logic*
