text: To some students, a summer project already seems like a chore. If students are allowed to design their own projects, they would be more enthusiastic about completing it. Therefore, student-designed projects encourage participation. Allowing students to create their own projects also enables them to choose a topic or theme that interests them, sparking creativity. It is much easier for students to work on an assignment covering their favorite athlete or researching a historical figure they admire, rather than studying a teacher-chosen topic that confuses or bores them.
