text: Another reason why the summer project should be teacher-designed is so they can create a set of guidelines to guide the student. The teacher can provide a rubric and rules to help the student understand what needs to be done for this project. For example, if the project needs to be a poster, tri-fold, or PowerPoint. Another aspect is if students can work in groups, duos, trios, or by themselves. Moreover, if the student needs to include any pictures, drawings, or symbols. Having guidelines helps the students be organized with their work and keeps them responsible of doing the work. If the student had designed this project they could've been confused and lost on what needed to be done. Students could've also forgotten about the project and not be prepared for the first day of school. With having this guideline, teachers can leave their email so the student can have access to help if needed. Furthermore, the teacher can leave websites and databases that help provide the student with resources for this project. These sets of guidelines can also included the choices of all the topics. This keeps the teacher informed of what students might do and what the teacher should prepare for on the first day of school. Overall, having a guideline created supports the student and keeps the teacher organized for the upcoming year.
