Students tend to shy away or be resistant to working in groups. This is due to the projects they are getting which seems like a bunch of busy work. CTE/STEM teaching real world application, inquiry and problem solving, as well as boosting cooperation, listening and research skills. 

I agree. The biggest question I hear from students is "How am I going to use this in the real world?" That is what STEM and CTE is all about.
