It is very important that you work closely with your group members to ensure
that your group grade is the best it can be. That includes proofreading
each other's work for both grammar and content and making sure that your
articles flow from one page to another, if necessary.
REMEMBER: This is a group grade. The grade includes checking each other's
work carefully and suggesting changes if necessary. Cooperation is very
important!
