text: I think the projects should be student designed. While others may say they should be teacher designed since they think they know what is best for the students or they should be able to know what they are going to be grading rather than being blind-sided with a project on a random topic, they however, are wrong. They are wrong because during school, students are always handed work by the teacher and this would be a good opportunity for the teacher to grade something that they are not expecting. I chose this position because some students will not have much time during the summer, it gives students a chance to challenge the teacher, and it also gets the student thinking more since they have to come up with a project from scratch rather than reading it off a piece of paper.
