text: Community service is a good thing that shouldn't be looked at like a punishment. so show them that just because your doing his doesn't mean your in trouble it just mean you like help taking care of your neighborhood. So basically you shouldn't require it but give other choices and ways of showing how important it can be to do community service.Just before the bell rings to dismiss students for year, teachers are struggling to keep the attention of students when explaining their summer assignments for the break. The students know that the summer assignments are important, but their attention is on the bell that declares summer vacation. Summer assignments are designed to ensure that students continue their intellectual journey over breaks. Both teacher-designed projects and student-designed projects accomplish this goal, however, one of the biggest challenges is deciding whether teacher-designed projects or student-designed project would do a better job at accomplishing this goal. The best way to ensure that students continue learning over break is to assign teacher-designed projects. Summer projects should be teacher-designed because teachers have a better understanding of the material, the project will be less stressful for students, and teacher-designed projects will prevent misjudgment of students by teachers.
