Team-work and GMP

Working in teams is a necessity in GMP.
Today was a perfect example for this. We have a quiz tomorrow and the textbook
has 12 chapters (approx 600 pages of fine-print text) devoted to the quiz topics.

Given this situation, it is impossible for any of us to do it all on our own.
The inevitable solution was to break up the task into 2-chapters per person
and do a group-sharing session (GSS) where each of us explained the chapter contents in detail. With this input, it becomes manageable to have a good grasp of the quiz
topics.

I am just back from a 5-hour GSS and feel a lot more confident about tomorrow's quiz.
