text: If a student was able to design his or her own summer project, it will probably lead to them not getting any information from it at all. A student does not know all the requirements needed for their upcoming class. The student will probably create the project where it is less work on themselves. Not many students want to do work during their summer break. Many students already do not even want a summer project assigned. I had a chance to create my own project during the summer one year for my English class; it did not turn out very well. I created the project where I did not have to do a ton of work on it because it was my summer break, and I wanted to enjoy it. The reason why it did not turn out well because I created the project with not enough for information because I did not want to waste my time on a summer project. Which also leaded to me not learning anything from it at all. When the first day of class came I knew absolutely nothing that my teacher was talking about. Then realized If my teacher had created the summer project I feel like I would of obtained way more information because she knows all the goals that need to be reached to succeed in her class.
