Imagine that a professor wants students to learn as much as possible about a subject in a short period of time. Is it better for the professor to require students to work together in a group, or is it better to require students to work alone? Why?
Nowadays, with the development of education in universities, there are lots of ways for students to learn, like working together and studying alone. Some people claim that, in order to learn a subject in a limited time, the professor should ask students to work as a group. As for me, I believe that the teacher should require them to work alone, especially considering the benefits of learning efficiency and comprehension.
On the one hand, independent studying helps people save time and work more efficiently. To be specific, time would largely be wasted when arranging a time that works for everyone. Take me for example. When I was studying for my master's degree in Sichuan, I took a course called Art Critical Writing, where the professor required us to finish a project in a group. Nevertheless, since every member in my group had a tight schedule, it was quite difficult for us to squeeze a suitable time for discussing the project, and often we would need to reschedule because a teammate had a temporary emergency, which resulted in a great deal of time being lost in communication that could have been spent fulfilling the task or learning. If they do the subject alone, they can start to work at any time and can make decisions quickly, as they do not need to argue with other people. This is because due to the team dynamic, progress is often slowed down because so much time and effort is spent either educating other team members or trying to “sell” decisions or best practices to the team. Even once everyone is on the same page, it is not uncommon for work to be done poorly by other team members which requires extra time to fix mistakes.
On the other hand, working on a project all by oneself deepens one's understanding. To be exact, when pupils have to accomplish an assignment on their own, they must be fully responsible for things like searing for related resources to back the statement, figuring out every thought that may call into question, and sorting ideas into a logical way. All of these movements make students fully grasp the subject they have learned. For example, when my friend Lucy was in college, she was doing a project about Modernism artists, requiring her to hand in a thesis and gave a presentation at the end. She chose Matisse as the subject of her study. As an independent assignment, she did her own internet research on Matisse's life, artworks, and artistic style. She even went to a museum to see his works in person. Since she does all the work by herself, she gained a profound understanding not only of Matisse but also of Modernism.
In conclusion, from what has been discussed above, I still maintain that it is better to require students to work alone, in order to learn lots of things about a subject in a short time.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
