Book excerpt: This study quantitatively examined the effect of block scheduling on student achievement. Specifically, the study compared student achievement as measured by the Pennsylvania System of School Assessments (PSSA) Reading and Math exams between students in block scheduled schools and traditionally scheduled schools. The sample for this study included over 53,000 individual student scores from public high schools in the south central region of Pennsylvania. The data sets used for analysis included individual student test results from the 2003, 2004 and 2005 administrations of the 11th grade PSSA Math and Reading Exams. This study utilized a hierarchical linear model analysis to examine the effects of school schedule type while attempting to control for student and school level variables. The dependent variables for level one were: IEP status, LEP status, economically disadvantaged status, gender and ethnicity. The dependent variables for level two were: school setting, percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and schedule type. Analysis of the data indicated that school schedules had no statistically significant impact on student achievement scores after controlling for student and school level variables. The study included an extensive literature review and implications for further research both nationally and in Pennsylvania. Contains 90 references.

Book excerpt: To use a block schedule or a traditional schedule? Which structure will produce the best and highest achievement rates for students? The research is mixed on this due to numerous variables such as: (1) socioeconomic levels; (2) academic levels; (3) length of time a given schedule has been in operation; (4) strategies being used in the classrooms; (5) what data is being used to measure achievement rates?; (6) how are students responding to the schedule?; and (7) how long has the schedule been in effect? There is little to no support that more "in seat" time equals better achievement, yet proponents of this stated that there is more time to add depth to the content and there is less fragmentation of the curriculum. Those who favor block schedules stated that there seem to be fewer discipline problems because the students have fewer passing periods, therefore, they are not in the halls as often as they are when on a traditional schedule. Canady, professor emeritus from the University of Virginia stated, "The schools that seem to be making the best use of scheduling to raise student achievement are those that see scheduling as a resource" ("Changing Times"). The available information on scheduling is abundantly clear, that just changing the schedule will not automatically or magically insure that there will be higher achievement levels. When examining schedules, many issues need to be considered and explored: (1) What are the goals of the school?; (2) How is time in every classroom structured and used?; (3) How is the content and curricula meeting the needs of every student?; and (4) Investigate different schedules and explore those that appear as if they might meet the goals of the school.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study reviews research and data to determine whether student achievement is affected by the high school scheduling model, and whether changes in scheduling models result in statistically significant changes in student achievement, as measured by the ACT Composite, ACT English Language Arts, and ACT Math scores. The high school scheduling models included in this study are: six period semester (SPS), five period trimester (FPT), seven period semester (VPS), standard 4x4 block (SB), and alternate day block (ADB). Supportive and non-supportive research are discussed in regard to the impact of the student scheduling model on student achievement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to identify the academic performance of students based on their current schedule. The study sought to find out what types of schedules are currently in use, the current state data available for school with different schedules, and what teachers and staff see as major benefits and challenges of schedules available. This research was conducted through the use of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction's District and School Report Cards website and an online survey tool. In total, 52 teachers, instructional support specialists, and principles from two different schools were sent an email invitation and explanation to participate in the survey. The survey consisted of both closed and open-ended questions. These questions sought to determine teaching experience and whether a teacher taught in block schedule, traditional schedule, or both. It also sought out the opinions on the advantages and disadvantages of the block and traditional schedule. Results of this research indicate that there is very little difference in academic achievement in the modified block and traditional schedule, although both schools used were both academically below the state average scores in reading and mathematics. The participants surveyed indicated to the advantages of the block schedule include smaller class sizes, longer periods to complete lab exercises, an increase in homework completion and turn in ratio, and a feeling a being more prepared for the lessons because fewer classes need to be prepared for. Some of the disadvantages include planning for double the amount of material for each class on a daily basis and the amount information that is covered in a short span of time. The participants surveyed indicated the advantages of the traditional schedule included offering a wider range of class options and the classes are then being taught year long, which allows for more content contact before the various state testing. The survey responses also indicated that some educators felt a traditional schedule led to larger class sizes and teachers preparing for multiple classes every day. This project did not uncover enough evidence to recommend one schedule over the other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ninety-five propositions for creating more relevant, more caring schools There is a growing desire to reexamine education and learning. Educators use the phrase "school 2.0" to think about what schools will look like in the future. Moving beyond a basic examination of using technology for classroom instruction, Building School 2.0: How to Create the Schools We Need is a larger discussion of how education, learning, and our physical school spaces can—and should—change because of the changing nature of our lives brought on by these technologies. Well known for their work in creating Science Leadership Academy (SLA), a technology-rich, collaborative, learner-centric school in Philadelphia, founding principal Chris Lehmann and former SLA teacher Zac Chase are uniquely qualified to write about changing how we educate. The best strategies, they contend, enable networked learning that allows research, creativity, communication, and collaboration to help prepare students to be functional citizens within a modern society. Their model includes discussions of the following key concepts: Technology must be ubiquitous, necessary, and invisible Classrooms must be learner-centric and use backwards design principles Good technology can be better than new technology Teachers must serve as mentors and bring real-world experiences to students Each section of Building School 2.0 presents a thesis designed to help educators and administrators to examine specific practices in their schools, and to then take their conclusions from theory to practice. Collectively, the theses represent a new vision of school, built off of the best of what has come before us, but with an eye toward a future we cannot fully imagine.
