Abstract

This study investigates students' experiences of group work, in mathematics, at both school and university, along with their current attitudes towards group work. Three groups of students from different universities were involved, and data was gathered using a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. Results revealed some significant differences between the universities in the students' experiences of, and attitudes towards, group work. Overall their attitudes were positive, but mainly utilitarian, and the most common form of group work they experienced was of an informal nature. No difference was found between the three cohorts in their school experience of group work.
