You are participating in a group assignment, and one member consistently submits their work late, impacting the team's progress. You've already spoken to them once. What's your next best course of action?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
1) Complete their work yourself to avoid further delays.
Not correct because it encourages dependency and the real problem remains unsolved.
2) Report them to the teacher immediately without another word
Too harsh because you already spoke once; you should try to solve it within the team first.
3) Set clear, smaller deadlines and offer support, escalating to the teacher only if problem persist.
Correct because it shows cooperation, responsibility, and a balanced approach.
4) Exclude them from the final presentation
Unfair and not a constructive solution.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
