text: When someone decidedly does not like something, you can't force them to like it, no matter how hard you try. That is what it can feel like for students when teachers assign work that is not interesting to them over and over again. There is no way for every part of classwork to interest students, but teachers could make an effort to make the one assignment that no one wants to do over the summer, interesting. When students have the ability to decide what they will study in a project, they are more excited and more willing to get the work done. Having students choose their project will save both the teachers and students from the painful force feeding of information.
