Integrated Writing Task - TOEFL practicing The exercise is the Integrated Writing Task (Toefl). Still need to manage better my time, I took 14 minutes longer than I was supposed to. Anyway, I'd be glad if anyone could help me with the correction. Both lectures, reading and listening, are about team working, but they have different points of views. Firstly, the reading passage sustains the idea that the team members have better chance to be recognized individually whereas the result achieved by the staff could be much more relevant than individual work. On the other hand, the listening lecture shows that some workers can get a free-ride because they might give poor contribution or even non contribution to a project result. Despite that, at the end of the work the entire staff will have the same recognition even though all the members didn’t put the same efforts on the task. Secondly, although the reading presents the idea that a group can work quicker than a single person, the professor in the listening talks about findings that some group projects wasn’t very efficient because of disagreement between the members, which took some reasonable time to reach consensus. Finally, the text shows that one of the project’s advantages done by a group of people is making riskier decisions together. However, in the listening the professor says that almost every group had one or two members who are more influential, what it results in the decision being taken by one single person at the end. Furthermore, when the decision is not quite good and it fails in the future, the whole group is responsible for the mistake.
