text: Students knowing that they are able to learn what they want, how they want makes them more motivated to do their work. When work is fun and exciting, it is much easier to complete and to want to complete. Teens and kids are so used to the same type of learning and the same projects that they have been asked to complete their whole lives that it is boring and extremely hard to find the motivation to do something they are bored with, they just don't want to do it. However, when students are given the ability to learn how they want to, it is exciting, especially when students are passionate about what they are doing. Not only will students be more motivated to do their summer projects, but student-designed projects would also lead to less academic dishonesty. At Generic_School, summer assignments have been the exact same thing for all students and they haven't changed in years, this means that it is extremely easy to find and/or get the answers to the summer assignments. This being said, it would be a lie to say that students don't cheat, because they do, but with student-designed projects, each project would be more individualized to each students needs, eliminating the ability to cheat. It just makes more sense to allow students to learn what they need to, how they want and need to, it gives them the ability to catch up to where their peers are, on their own time and terms.
