Although I really liked the idea of a Week Without Walls (teaching students through projects outside the classroom), I felt the most important part of chapter ten was providing internship opportunities to students during the summer months.
By providing internships teachers are both allowing students to experience real world situations and providing them a scenario where education is applicable. This is essential for students to begin to realize the value of their schooling, as well as showing them some of the opportunities that different subject areas can create. More importantly, it gives students an experience that will probably change their lives and better help prepare them for life beyond graduation.
