Eat to Appreciete, Not to Finish.

I would like to give, to my children, a project which they don't have to finish.
A Project which they don't have to submit to get grades or appreciation from teacher.

This project will be to appreciete the project & its details itself.

Lets Compare it with having a Great Lunch.
let a few friends get together & collect a few nice things they love to eat.
Now; instead of finishing the lunch in 30 minutes, start eating slowly & writing or talking about one's likeness of that dish (don't collect things which ya don't like).
one might like the color of the food, the sound, the taste, the nutrients, aroma & so on...

Eventually everyone will be full, they shall all finish their lunch.
Then just recollect those thoughts which came up while having lunch & talk about it.

Similary, their shall be a design project where the process of design shall be appreciated. The intentions of design shall be understood, the objectives, the pitfalls,
But this process shall be performed with honest & hard-working pupils alone to avoid procrastination.
