text: To begin with, creativity reflects who you are. Student-designed summer projects would let the students think outside the box because it gives them an opportunity to create their own design. In my experience, many years ago, I was asked to work on a project but it had a certain format that I did not like. They had gave me a theme that I was not able to understand. I had to see it in their point of view and to be honest, it was difficult. I was not able to be creative nor express myself. That project had limited my creativeness and being creative is an essential step on working to complete a summer project.
