text: The last reason why teachers are better fit for designing the summer projects rather than students is because teachers will make sure it covers the curriculum in depth. Teachers would have access to county or state requirements for that certain course and would be able to design the projects so that they cover all the information needed. Furthermore, teachers would test students' true knowledge and challenge them rather than just skim over surface facts. Finally, what makes teachers even more qualified for designing the projects is that they have had years of experience (in most cases). To make sure that students continue learning new material over summer break, teachers must be the ones designing the projects because they have taught the material year after year and have a good grasp on concepts. It wouldn't make sense for students to design projects based off material that they have not yet learned because it's very possible that they might skip over crucial information. Having these summer projects be teacher-designed would ensure the coverage of all the course content.
