text: However, teacher-designed projects can help a student be better educated on the topic he/she gets confused about. The project can help the student understand the topic better. If the teacher designs a project for the students to complete over the break, the students would have an enormous amount of time to complete research on the topic and do their project. And by the end of the project, the students would have a deeper understanding of the topic since they had to do research and finish the project. For example, a teacher would design a topic that he/she knows the students have a hard time understanding. The students would need to take time during their break to do research on the topic and then connect their ideas about the topic into their project. After finishing the project, the students would have a much deeper understanding of the topic.
