text: Sincerely,      During summer break a student is very likely to lose touch of their skills since they will not be attending school on a regular basis for a long period of time. That is why some schools are beginning to introduce a series of summer projects for students to keep their minds in check over summer break. There are many benefits to having these summer projects,but hence the question should these projects be designed by teachers or should students themselves design these projects. Although having a summer projected designed by a teacher would allow the teacher to grade the projects more efficiently as they would be on the same subject, having students design their own projects for summer break is better because students will turn in better quality projects and be more enthusiastic about completing them since they can choose a topic that interest them, teachers will enjoy receiving a variety of interesting projects to grade, and students choosing a summer project can use it to better benefit themselves as a whole.
