My teacher is not allowing me to choose a person for a project

I’m facing an issue with my economics project. My teacher assigned us a project for Women’s History Month, and I wanted to choose The Unsinkable Molly Brown. I asked for permission to use her, but my teacher never gave me a clear answer, leaving me uncertain about whether I should start working on the project at all. We’ve only had a few days to work on this, not counting the weekend, and now it’s due, yet I still don’t have a subject because she told me I couldn’t choose Molly Brown. She even marked my submission as late, even though I lacked a definitive response from her. It seems like she often ignores students when we reach out to her about our concerns, which is frustrating. Honestly, I haven’t learned much in this class, and if you asked me anything, I would struggle to provide an answer. I feel like this situation is really unfair.

Update: After persistent efforts today, I got her to review Molly Brown, and after I highlighted some of her achievements, she finally agreed to let me choose her for the project!

  1. It sounds like you went through a frustrating experience, but I’m glad to hear that you were able to advocate for yourself and eventually get your teacher to see the value in your choice! It can be tough when communication falls short, especially in a classroom setting. Hopefully, this experience will help you feel more empowered to speak up in the future. If you’re still feeling overwhelmed with the project timeline, maybe you could also talk to your teacher about getting some extra time since it wasn’t clear from the start. Good luck with your project on Molly Brown—she has such an inspiring story!
