href=\"https:\/\/www.allearsenglish.com\/ielts\/ielts-video-task-2-can-you-agree-with-both-sides\/\">IELTS Task 2 topic<\/a> asks your opinion about whether collaboration or competition is more effective.<\/p>\n<p>This might be about children working together or adults.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Collaboration<\/strong>: working together cooperatively<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Competition<\/strong>: competing against one another in an attempt to outperform others<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Jessica shares that she prefers to complete tasks herself.<\/p>\n<p>This is because she was forced to collaborate with groups in school and the other participants didn\u2019t do the work!<\/p>\n<p>Aubrey shares that she has her twins compete with each other to increase motivation and engagement.<\/p>\n<p>There are definitely <a

score, people lose interest.<\/p>\n<p>Some people wouldn\u2019t go at all.<\/p>\n<p>The competition creates an end goal.<\/p>\n<p>It gives you something very clear that you\u2019re working
