text: During the summer, the main priority of most kids is spending time with friends and family and having fun. If we leave students to design their own projects, most of them are not going to want to do it. Motivation, especially towards school, goes down a lot during these summer months. Kids are going to leave these projects to the last minute, and not give them their full effort, minimizing their learning. If we get teachers to design these projects, then students will know exactly what they have to do, learn the correct information, and won't have room to get lazy with details because they will have requirements set by the teachers.
