I think that it really depends on a person's personality on whether they work better in a group or by themselves. It also can depend on the subject and/or kind of work. For this project, I think as long as you make it clear up front whose responsibilities are whose and what the goal is, it can be productive.
Usually, however, I like to work alone just for the mere fact that my personality warrants it. I tend to be a follower sometimes if I'm in a group even though I desire to be a leader. My anxiety keeps me from taking as much initiative as I would like.
However, my partner is very productive and helpful. It is a relief since sometimes it is easy to get put in a situation where your partner doesn't do a thing and can't be trusted. That is definately not the case in my situation.
Our topic is Educational Websites. We are going to compile a good amount of websites that we think would be helpful when incorporated into the classroom as well as for solitary study.
