there's lots of "group work" in math now - WTF? The net result of group work is that the kids who "get it" in the group do the work and the rest don't even try (to fail in a group is embarrassing and, besides, the group "achieved their goal" without your help, so why work?)

As a student, who does this daily in math class, I disagree. My experience in regular and advanced math courses has been similar. We do a lot of group work and check answers as we work. If or when someone doesn't understand something, they ask another member of the group. If someone was really so concerned about not doing work, they would just copy it later; working in a group doesn't make a difference.
