text: Secondly, student-designed projects are more manageable. During the summer, many students tend to go on vacations. If the school a student was attending, was to give out a teacher-designed project for the summer and the place the student went on a trip to, did not have the tools needed to complete the project, then everything would be a total disaster. Teacher-designed projects can sometimes be too specific in what they want which can be hard to deal with during the summer. If it was a student-designed project then the student could work with what they have instead of being stuck in the middle of a crisis. Additionally, students have better time management with student-designed projects. Since the project is purely based off of the students interests, they will be more motivated to do the project on time and not the night before school begins (which is what many teacher-designed projects lead to). Student-designed projects have more flexibility and uniqueness than teacher-designed projects.
