– work with individuals to identify their areas of strengths,
interests, etc. and then follow through with helping them choose projects
that match. You will always work MUCH harder on something you WANT to do
and like to do and there are some amazing stories out there (I am sure you
have your own too) of the incredible amount of work a student will put in
and the obstacles they will overcome when they are MOTIVATED learners.
While your responsibility as a professional educator certainly mandates
that you don't overwhelm your students toooooo much, you must also keep
walking that fine line between overwhelming and challenging!
Gee, sounds like the problems of overwhelming vs challenging that your
students have is VERY similar to the problems YOU face as an educator!!!

Number one rule? …………………… Keep it FUN!! (for both of you!)
