text: Finally, a student-designed project that is required would take the pressure off the fact that it is required because as I said before, student created projects would be less demanding and would allow students to get more learning out of the project. As a high school student I would dislike a high pressure assignment in the summer because we get more than enough of those during the school year. Summer is meant for travel, relaxing at the the pool or beach, and being with friends and family, and a high pressure project during the summer is the last thing students need to worry about. Student-designed projects would be lower pressure and would create a sense of fun learning during the summer that students would enjoy.
