Yadda.
Morning sleepy, slow jog for PE, recess, curry chicken rice & greentea, library, someone was playing Where'd You Go at the piano there. Love that song.

Dear school. Why do our teachers always choose such boring project subjects for us? Why can't they consult the students as to what kind of projects they'd like to do, instead of choosing topics for us themselves. Contrary to what some may think, a project we actually, err, enjoy may not necessarily be unmeaningful.
Of couse, it's impossible to satisfy the entire level and settle on a topic that's favoured by all, but at least try to cater to the majority of us?
Teachers think the so called boring topics may be helpful for us?
Perhaps they could try to make it slightly more interesting, then. Seeking our personal opinions on the choosing of topics may help.
This term's IPW project topic for sec2s: Indian Culture.
Apparently it will help us further appreciate and understand the Indian culture.
Wrong. Have our teachers ever considered the fact that very few of us will truly have a better appreciation/understanding of the culture? Most of us treat the project as a mere obstacle in their way. They jump over it, go on their way, promptly forget about that obstacle.
Hm. I suppose the teachers don't mind us doing that, then?
Perhaps we could have a mini student council for each level to assist in choosing project topics for everyone.
Students understand students best. Teachers cannot possibly argue with that.
Besides, I'm sure teachers want their students to pay attention when they're going through project instructions.
Sincerely yours,
Stacy.

Title :
Boring Project Topics
Present situation :
Bland, uninteresting project topics chosen by teachers who try in vain to 'understand' our interests. Their efforts are appreciated, but not very successful.
Suggestion for improvement :

Students would naturally be more keen to do a project which they find enjoyable or interesting.
