The most efficient way of working as a group is working alone and sharing
Comment on Shame.
theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 7 hours agoThe only thing I remember from the ethics lecture for my CS program was being distracted by other classmates who were using the time to cheat on assignments by sharing code solutions with each other via USB.
Which was pretty dumb because the program encouraged group collaboration on assignments anyway, as long as you weren’t just taking others’ work as your own.

School is about learning, not efficient production.

Perhaps, though schooling is often struggles to promote solutions that are not efficiency first. In fact as far as I’ve experienced colleges and universities often benchmark the courseload so most will resort to shortcuts that save time and reduce learning.
Of course there are always those who take the path of least resistance, but outside actual prodigies schooling is designed for priorization for those with higher aspirations too.
Not a valueless skill of course, but I’ve often wondered if the courses tight scheduling squeezes in manage to compensate for shoddier fundamentals of the trade.

Reminds me of this Calvin and Hobbes comic about ethics :)
