Book Synopsis Beyond the deep structure by : Jill I. Hill
Download or read book Beyond the deep structure written by Jill I. Hill and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This advocacy project focuses on restructuring the school day for middle school students in grades seven and eight at Bay View Middle School located in Howard-Suamico, Wisconsin, into a block schedule in order to eliminate ineffective use of school time. Block scheduling allows students to take four classes per day, each lasting approximately ninety minutes. This structure minimizes the time that is lost on transitioning between classes and administrative duties, and thus allows more time to be used for instruction. Another benefit of the block schedule is that it allows teachers to employ innovative teaching strategies that require longer periods of time. Ninety minutes affords the opportunity to use an anticipatory set, a structured lesson with discovery learning/cooperative learning, and time to analyze, summarize, and make connections at the end of class. Under the current structure of forty-three minute class periods, this type of quality lesson would need to be stretched over two or more days. This advocacy project uses empirical research to generate a growing understanding of the benefits of the implementation of a block schedule at a middle school level.

Book Synopsis Block Scheduling by : Norma Jean Anderson

Book excerpt: Purpose of the study . The purpose of this investigation was to study the effects of block scheduling in Missouri high schools on instructional strategies. The conceptual framework guiding this study is the relationship between time and teacher behavior. This study focuses on the effects of longer class periods on instructional strategies. Procedures . Using data from an initial survey of Missouri school leaders which revealed the prevalence of block scheduling in the state, schools were selected to participate in the study. Twenty-five schools using block schedules were selected. Twenty-five schools using traditional schedules were selected to serve as a comparison group. Approximately one-half of the teachers from each of the 50 schools were asked to complete a survey entitled "Survey of Missouri High School Schedules and Teaching Strategies." This survey was designed and field tested by the researcher. Findings . Six hundred seventy-eight surveys were returned from the original 1245 sent out for a 54% return rate. The statistical analysis of the dependent variables, instructional strategies, yielded the following results: (1) There is a statistically significant difference (Analysis of Variance test) in the use of the instructional strategies, discussions and research projects at the .05 level of significance. Research projects were reported in higher use in schools with traditional schedules, while the instructional strategy of discussions was reported in higher use in schools with a 10-block schedule. (2) There was also a significant correlation, as evidenced by the Pearson Product Moment Correlation, between the amount of inservice time provided to Missouri high school teachers and their use of cooperative teaching, group work, labs, and interdisciplinary teaming. Conclusions . The following conclusions were drawn: (1) The use of thirteen selected instructional strategies by Missouri high school teachers is not dependent on the type of schedule the school has. Surprisingly, the use of research projects is greater in schools with traditional schedules, while teachers in schools with 10-block schedules rated their use of discussions higher. (2) If a school decides to block schedule, teacher inservice can enhance the probable effectiveness of that schedule, especially in terms of the teachers use of four specific instructional strategies: cooperative teaching, group work, labs, and interdisciplinary teaming.

Book Synopsis An Investigation of the Feasibility of Implementing Block Scheduling at Bainbridge High School by : Stan Killough
Download or read book An Investigation of the Feasibility of Implementing Block Scheduling at Bainbridge High School written by Stan Killough and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the student survey, the sample population at Bainbridge High School (Decatur County, Georgia) reflects the importance of having opportunities to take more courses, focus on fewer courses at one time, have more in depth study time, and the opportunity to finish a course in one semester. These are all benefits of block scheduling and they are not possible with the traditional six period schedule. Based on the teachers survey, the faculty believed the block schedule would better accommodate and enhance student learning, attendance, and drop outs. Many of the faculty believed students will benefit from a more in depth study of their subjects due to the change in block scheduling.
