text: Schoolwork is difficult to each student for different reasons; moreover, no student is the same and should not have to work at a level that is too difficult for them. Teacher-designed projects discourage students from working in such a way that benefits them since they must follow a rubric that limits them. That rubric does not give students an opportunity to work in such a way that is unique to them because the rubric requires perfect, "textbook" solutions. Also, teacher-designed projects are often confusing and may require thinking that is outlandish, or too difficult to understand. This further proves that projects not created by students aren't beneficial because some students can't grasp onto certain concepts or thinking processes different from the ones they have previously been using. Despite this, some may still agree with assigning students teacher-based projects over the summer because everyone receives the same assignment, therefore the level of difficulty is the same for everyone. However, they are incorrect because everyone is unique, has their own way of understanding certain situations, and solves problems in different ways.
