text: Most students enjoy exploring over summer; and what better way to do it than through a project. Student-designed projects would allow students to create it however they want. Even if it's a group project or even one where they'd need to actually go somewhere. Teachers wouldn't make it all that interesting, they'd just add a few things to make it "fun" but not to where a student would get excited. If students want more time with friends and family, they could add things into the project to make that happen. Teachers are known as the "fun killers", so students would get the chance to take matters into their own hands and fix that.
