Throughout the school year, projects that are assigned by teachers don't capture student's true capabilities and skills. However, if students designed their own projects, they could finally display their strengths, which would lead to an increase in motivation for perfecting the project

Is giving students homework during their Summer Break a good thing? Does it allow them to retian information and hopefully use it for next year? But even better, should these students be even given the privelage of assigning their own homework?
