Why do we join groups, and what role do they play in our lives? There are undoubtedly many ideas to chose from, but in a 30-minute essay of the type you are asked to write in the ECPE exam, you should restrict your discussion to two or three reasons and examine them in some depth. Never forget to support your arguments with examples! Here are two articles related to the topic, drawn from the worlds of work and sports:

1. Does working as a group actually help us learn?

2. Should you join a running club or run alone?
