I never gave any large, outside-of-class projects simply because most of my students did not have the resources to complete the projects. Also, many of my students worked close to full-time jobs. The middle school I teach at currently, the population is 67% Latino. Most parents are not proficient enough in English to help their kids, nor do they have the financial resources. What is an appropriate amount of classtime for projects? How much should I expect the students to be able to do outside of class? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Amount of time given to projects should be based on the type of schedule you are on (block, traditional, hybrid, etc). I am on a hybrid year-long schedule. I see students for a 45 minute period on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. I see A classes on a block on Tuesday and B classes on a block on Wednesday. I tend to use the block days for project/assessment days.
