text: Distance learning is a new opportunity for schools and students. It teaches people how to work independently and not to rely solely on others. Also, it removes bad societal pressures that arise from peers in a school setting. Furthermore, it gives people the opportunity to not only prove it to others that they can work but to themselves as well. In conclusion, more schools should be allowing distance learning as an option for students.A summer project can be a great way to keep students actively engaged in their academics while providing them with a way to explore outside interests in their summer life. many schools have adopted this practice and have begun assigning summer projects to students as a way to keep them academically stimulated during their long time off, the big question however is whether teachers should design the project or whether students should instead. The goal of this is to help students to not fall into a summer slum that inevitably effects their performance at the beginning of the school year, which will start them off on a good track to succeed the rest of the year, a common way students fail is simply "tripping on their own feet" son to speak, they start off wrong and never quite catch back up. While teacher designed projects can be more well planned for grading and more generalized, student designed projects can arise more creativity, and interest, along with their brains learning more cause of this active stimulation.
