I've only ever been in 1 group-project class. When I was in college group projects were extremely common. As were group-projects for clubs. The SW engineering sequence was all group based. The compiler sequence was group project based. OS was group project based. And architecture was group project based. It's incredibly difficult to test for learned knowledge, rather than just memorization. Is it really? Most of my tests were open book or take home. You'd think that this would negate 90% of the benefit of memorization.

Maybe he should check himself into Northeastern University. It was almost every course that started off teaming oneself up and heading right into the project work as a team. Loners were discouraged from venturing off.

"You'd think that this would negate 90% of the benefit of memorization." Particularly math classes. Memorization was almost meaningless and tests could be open book for all the prof cared.
