text: The reason most students end up just not doing an assignment is because it's boring. I know for myself it's very hard to bring myself to do something that bores me. Students need to be kept interested or else no learning will come out of the teaching. Interest is a very important part of learning. Hearing a lesson and listening to a lesson are two different things. Teachers aren't trusting enough of students. Students and young people are capable of more things than adults and teachers give them credit for. Students are very capable of coming up with their own project and their own way of learning with a little bit of teacher guidance, to keep everything reasonable and not crazy. Young people have a different outlook on everything that adults. Young people have the ablility to make anything and everything fun. Young people don't get enough credit for that. Adults find kids wanting to have fun all the time irresponsable, but I think it makes everything better and easier.
