text: However, some people may argue that summer projects should be teacher designed and not student designed. They say that because some people believe that the teacher knows best for the students because they are the ones that really know the material and subject. But by having teachers design the projects themselves, it could interfere with your job or schedule leaving you stressed out over the summer when you should be more relaxed. It is always very important to make sure that you get rest mentally and physically. The teacher could also leave an assignment that you have no clue or interest in, resulting in you not learning as well on the project as you could have. Student designed summer assignments have the benefits for both the teacher and student. The student will learn and have fun while doing the project, and the teacher doesn't have to worry about people not turning it in because the students will be interested in their project that they personally designed.
