  1. Hi Osman, I’m Rajiv from an ENG 220 class and I’m writing to offer you my advice on this particular writing assignment, as well as learn along the way. Thank you for allowing me this opportunity to read your work, hopefully with my input you can improve its overall quality.
    Firstly, I liked how you offered your thoughts on the behaviors of individual vs. individuals in groups. I agree with your point that sometimes people who work in groups - work better to getting things done, it’s a fact. This idea is very important in understanding that certain individuals react differently according to their particular environment. However though, it seems like you are having some issues with the structure of your essay. Before I offer you my advice, I think it’s best for you to look-over the assignment guidelines before composing the essay. Apart from summarizing the article, “In Groups We Shrink” by Carol Tavris, there are proceeding steps you need to follow in order to compose a well written essay. Staying with the summary of the passage, I think you need to re-read the passage carefully and grasp the main points and put them into your own words. You did well in introducing the case studies of the passage, which is evidence you should use to support a claim or an idea obtain from the passage of your choice. For instance, you claimed that, “most people work better in groups” when summarizing the passage. Is that really what Tavris is saying? Or is it your own idea? Be careful not to confuse the passage with your own ideas.
    You can start by identifying ‘one idea’ from the passage that is most important to you and explain why it’s important. Then, to add appropriate body to your essay, you can introduce a personal experience to support the idea obtain from the passage. For example, something that happened in your life that proves why people who in groups - work better. But most importantly, re-read both the passage and the assignment guidelines before proceeding.
    Thanks again for posting this. I learned a lot about the behaviors of individuals vs. individuals in groups. It’s a fascinating psychological shift in when people are situation in different environments. Good luck!
