Book excerpt: Purpose of the study . The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of modified block scheduling on a suburban midwestern high school. Procedures . Case study research methodology was used to determine how modified block scheduling had impacted the school from the perspective of students, parents, teachers, and administrators. Findings . The following findings were identified: (1) The general perception of modified block scheduling has remained positive prior to, during, and after implementation. (2) Students, teachers, and administrators perceived that instruction had changed after the implementation of modified block scheduling. (3) The impact of instructional changes was to enhance learning opportunities for some students. (4) The modified block schedule had a positive impact on school climate. (5) The seminar period (AIM) each Thursday was used in a positive manner by some school participants and was not by others. (6) It was a concern of the teaching staff that they did not have a plan period one day a week. Teachers viewed those days without a plan period as difficult. (7) The modified block schedule appeared to be more beneficial for higher achieving students than lower achieving students. While these findings were supported by a variety of data sources, an obvious question remains. Are the perceived positive attributes of modified block scheduling in this school parallel to other schools with similar schedules? This question, in addition to others is left for further research.

Purcell (III) and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Block schedules afford the educator extended periods of time with which topics can be exlored in greater depth, as well as offering the opportunity to do hands on work, which might not be feasible during the time allowed in a traditional schedule. Middle school students in particular, who are just beginning to explore abstract thought, are ripe for exploring subjects during an extended block of time. It is for these reasons that many schools have looked at block scheduling as an alternative to the traditional model that consists of equal length periods scheduled throughout the day.

Book Synopsis Transforming Health Care Scheduling and Access by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Transforming Health Care Scheduling and Access written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Transforming Health Care Scheduling and Access, long waits for treatment are a function of the disjointed manner in which most health systems have evolved to accommodate the needs and the desires of doctors and administrators, rather than those of patients. The result is a health care system that deploys its most valuable resource-highly trained personnel-inefficiently, leading to an unnecessary imbalance between the demand for appointments and the supply of open appointments. This study makes the case that by using the techniques of systems engineering, new approaches to management, and increased patient and family involvement, the current health care system can move forward to one with greater focus on the preferences of patients to provide convenient, efficient, and excellent health care without the need for costly investment. Transforming Health Care Scheduling and Access identifies best practices for making significant improvements in access and system-level change. This report makes recommendations for principles and practices to improve access by promoting efficient scheduling. This study will be a valuable resource for practitioners to progress toward a more patient-focused "How can we help you today?" culture.
