  1. Two heads are better than one. So I think learning in a group has more advantages than leaning it individually.
    Working in groups allow students to take an active role in learning, to exchange opinions /to communicate/, to find solutions, to develop, to become confident, be more creatively and so on...
    Most highlighting important thing is communication. When I communicate with others, I always learn from them. In a group there are different personality students so they will think out variety of ideas. Thus I will find out new ideas that I didn’t think.
    Moreover, teamwork helps students to overcome shyness. Some of them became more open, others more helpful, third ones more confident. Nowadays ability to work with people is biggest benefits to get a job.
    We need to learn with others to learn. We need the collaboration of others.

  2. I would prefer group learning. Having a team that depends on you can increase your motivation and you will feel obliged to help everyone.
    Group study allows information shared in one place and same time. Sharing information can open discussion and develop your learning skill. You have opportunity to learn from each other, share your skills to others.

    1. In my opinion.the Students divide into group in the classroom that students share the own ideas and listen ideas each other. So student learn more interesting and develop the speaking skill.

  5. Both individual learning and group learning are effective. I think it depends on our learning process. Some people prefer group learning to individual learning whereas some people don't. For me, group learning is better than individual learning. It gives us more opportunity.

  6. In my opinion group learning is more powerful than doing it by yourself. Group learning is can help us to thinking about one problem in a variety of ways also get to know each other. When we are just doing individually we faced with a problem that we can't solve it quickly.

  7. In my view, group learning is an effective way of learning and cooperation with others.That would refer to every students of the group to actively participate in the learning process and activities.

  8. For me. I think group learning because working together can assist students to have a better understanding of a certain subject. Also the students can ask each other question.If alone a student might postpone studying until the night before class.In addition If you struggle with procrastination, a study group might just be the solution for you!:)

  9. I think both of them are suitable for student's learning approach. Because there is a 2 kinds of student. First one is learner who are more motivated when she / he work in pairs and surely work in group. Advantage of learn and work in group is we are open minded when we are together and share our knowledge and experience. We can correct each others mistakes quickly. Of course, always sharpen our minds . On the other hand we don't forget about there is kind of learner who are independent. He / She may works more comfortable, qualified when he / she alone. This kind of student can improve themselves easily, faster. All in all knowledge is power and widow . In order to be powerful you should know and test which is the best way of my learning style? Ask yourself!

  10. First of all, Learning process is an important. Every people have their own learning strategies. It influences our learning way in a different way. So I think that some people like to learn individual. In contrast, some of them prefer to learn work in a group. There aren't correct answer for this question. These two ways have their own pros and cons. If you learn individual, you may can't communicating other people, also can't sharing your opinions with others. This way good side is to control and plan our learning by your own. These kind of students would be more self-independent. These are the main points of learning individual. On the other hand, group learning is a tool of communicating and collaborating with other people. Students who prefer to work in a group is that they have to be more communicated and open-minded. They are able to learn from the others. Also they are good critical thinking students. The bad aspect of these way are student's attendance and participation would be little more. All students can't involve group meeting and group discussion etc. So, This two ways have so many advantages and disadvantages. Those are the main points of this discussion topic. For me, group learning is better than other one. I usually learn from others all the time. I reckon that, It is the best way to study successful. In my final year, during my practice time, as a student-teacher: I found out so many things that is related to the learning process.

  11. Each person has different method to learn something and learning speed and proceeding information speed can be vary depending on people's perception ability. Some people prefers to study by just themselves while some prefers to study in a small group. For me, It is really hard to choose which one is better.

    First of all, I would like to discuss about individual learning. Individual learning means we can learn without cooperating with the people. Maybe this activity is better for those are not sociable or prefers to study in quiet and calm environment. The less people around us whien we study, the more we can concentrate on certain task.

    On the other hand, learning in a group is another method that can have some benefits from it. It seems like people can be more productive during group learning. For example: There will be unknown question, complicated and uneasy tasks while you study and in this case, you can learn from your group mates, then if your group mates face the same situation like yours, you can help them as well. Learning in a group can shape people into better version like helpful, responsible and more open minded.

    Generally, It is hard to tell which one is better than another one because both can be effective methods to learn.

  12. It depends on each students' learning behavior. However, from my experience,I prefer a group learning than an individual learning. Because there is have many benefits of group learning.

    Firstly, students will develop their cooperation with others and socialize better. Being able to communicate effectively is the most important of all life skills.

    Secondly, students can compare and contrast themselves with other students during a group learning process. It means they can observe their own level of knowledge, skill and achievement. Maybe they will find out the answers for these questions, "Where am I going? What am I have to learn? What is my achievement so far?" Since it is impossible to know all of them on individual learning process.

    In addition, recent studies have recognized that students can be motivated and well-participated in classwork when they work in groups than individually. In other words, it increases students' productivity and performance. Also, they can learn from each other.

    All in all, I keen on a group learning rather than an individual learning.
