text: During the school year, projects are typically focused on a specific unit or lesson. While summer projects capture majority of the school year in one project. With teacher-designed projects, the teachers can decide which units their students will base their projects on. Teachers can also decide whether they want the project to be very specfic on a certain unit or if they want the project to be about a handful of different unit that will eventually relate to each other. This will overall benefit the student because it will help them retain the most important information from the year.
