Collaboration sucks in Dodge 150
Not enough projects/group work
There is no incentive for teachers to encourage collaboration
Room layouts don't encourage collaboration
not built into the curriculum
Classes follow assessment-based structures
classrooms are all standard
Students don't mesh well together
Not used to collaboration
layout is focused on the position of the professor
Study all night information you will forget
students come from various backgrounds
some buildings were built when project-based learning was not common
Low wages result in a decrease in innovation
easier for teachers to assign/grade a scantron
hard to measure/grade accountability
Students may not care about a subject they are being forced to work on
:
Boring and repetitive
success is based on the grade you get, not what you learned
Students use personal electronic devices that encourage individual work
Currently don't have a way to guarantee educational value to students
Tables that would allow for collaboration make it awkward for half the class to look at the professor
Baked into our current system, people are comfortable and complacent
Wide-scale change to education is difficult for students, teachers, and management
Students go along with the current way of learning and don't raise concerns to teachers
Difficult to structure a project in such a way that gives you freedom but still focuses in on a specific concept
some students prefer to take control of a project, and some are just along for the ride
Technology in aging rooms hampers collaboration
students who are harsh graders in peer reviews are frowned upon by other students
Tables currently used have people sitting on all 4 sides, there is no "front " to point at the professor
Teachers will be compensated the same whether students are happy with how they are learning or not
there are many required classes which may have little value to some students
Bulk materials/designs are cheaper and easier to acquire and maintain
Educational culture of testing has made students competitive as opposed to collaborative
lower levels of education don't emphasize group work as much
Lack of long-term assessments encourages cramming
professors are required to give only a certain amount of A's
Competitive system only has room for X amount of students to succeed at the highest level
In the new hybrid classroom model it is increasingly difficult for students to collaborate
that value is perceived differently for each student
Students are working in different time zones which makes meeting challenging
rooms are now virtual and lose the important face-to-face interactions
Collaborating over video conference can be awkward - people frequently talk over one another, have choppy audio/video, etc.
If everyone succeeds, it becomes harder to differentiate students
Students can become distracted or disengaged when learning from their apartment or home
Numbers make sense
no encouragement of new teaching methods
Students may resist collaboration because they don't want to do other peoples' work
use of these devices can result in browsing the internet / social media and other activities that result in students not being engaged in collaborating with their classmates
Technology Sucks
not used
Video Conferencing Sucks
Useless
Difficult to learn

Technology is constantly evolving
Hard to pick up on conversation cues
Can't connect new machines to old hardware
no face to face communication
compatibility sucks
Inconvenient
Laggy video is annoying
people choose not to use it
Still feels Isolated
Sharing video, presentations, etc. sucks
little initiative to learn
Unnatural interface
not everyone has best equipment
Talking at a screen is awkward
Internet sucks
Good internet is expensive
expensive
