So the idea that the students would design a project is absolutely ludacris! Why would they do what their parents pay the teachers to do through tax money? If the students made the projects the projects wouldn't help them at all because they'd have no idea what they'd be learning and the idea that they'd know what thei...

On the other hand I can see how people could have an argument for why kids designing their own summer projects could be a good thing. Students know what goes on in their minds and what certain work they need to address specific issues.

Essentially they know themselves better than teachers do, and them designing their own project could cater to their specific needs and problems. Also a few of my friends have told me that when their teacher lets them design their own projects and assignments they feel like they know and understand the material better.

As a high school student we have 185 days in our summer vacation. Though most of us do not have to worry about a summer project, a lot of schools do. This could mark the question of; what is the project about? Many schools have the teachers assign the project and others have the students determine the project.

We understand that teachers and schools want us to keep learning over summer, but a lot of the times many people go out of the country, visit family, do not have internet access, and etc. So, if students had the ability to choose their own project, they could do it based off what they have available over the summer.

We all have to take our course classes in school, where we already do lots of learning on those specific subjects. So why not for a change, change it up. Give students the chance to choose their own topic. Maybe something they do not have a class for at school or something that really interests them.
