Not sure where to post this, so figured this is the best area.
I am currently enrolled in a RN-BSN online program. We have been assigned to complete a group project in one of my classes. I have a total group of 4, including myself. It seems that I am the only member who is proactive and trying to complete the necessary work in a timely manner. I do work full time and have a very tight schedule. I have emailed all group members asking if there is a specific day we can all be online to communicate. I have also asked if sharing our work schedules would help. I have shared my schedule, especially because I work 12 hour shifts on nights and have a 45 minute commute to and from work.
How do you get members involved within group projects in online courses? Any suggestions?

There's a great thread here on group projects that may give you some ideas, and if it doesn't, will at least let you know you're not alone. :)

email your instructor. Tell him/her what you told us and ask for advice. I absolutely HATE group projects for the above reasons.
