Passion Projects
What is a Passion Project?
21st Century Learners:
Collaborate, Communicate, Think Critically, and Create!
Working on Passion Projects will be your favorite part of each day! You will have time to choose what you want to learn about! Anything is possible. Your teachers will be checking in with you on your progress, but it is all directed by you! These are student driven projects.
Remember to follow and complete each step of the passion project guidelines.
Where do passion projects stem from?
The search-engine giant, Google, allows its engineers to spend 20% of their time to work on any pet project that they want. The idea is very simple. Allow people to work on something that interests them, and productivity will go up. Google’s policy has worked so well that it has been said that 50% of Google’s projects have been created during this creative time period. Ever heard of Gmail or Google News? These projects are creations by passionate developers that blossomed from their 20-time projects.
