Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative study was to gain insight into the teacher perceptions of the block schedule in comparison to the traditional schedule. High school teachers from two school districts volunteered to complete a Likert-scale survey and answer three open-ended questions as well as participate in interviews about the effectiveness of the block schedule. An additional element of the study was to compare the responses from two different schools: those teachers new to the block, School A; and those teachers who had experienced the block for multiple years, School B. A look at school data provided additional information as a possible support of the teacher perceptions. Overall, teachers from both schools expressed positive perceptions of the block schedule. School B, the school with more experience in the block, had a greater percentage of teachers communicate positive perceptions of the block. School data supported the positive teacher perceptions as well.

Book excerpt: Adams and Salvaterra show how block scheduling can help teachers become more creative in instructional strategies and find higher satisfaction on the job. Students' grades improve, they can complete more courses and administrators and faculty can become more student-centered, discussion-oriented, and focused on complex academic tasks. Staff development and continual training throughout the change process are keys to implementing successful changes. Block Scheduling will help each school find its own pathway to success.

Brown and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative study was to determine whether or not there is a correlation between block scheduling and improved campus climate, block scheduling and improved teacher and student work life, and block scheduling and increased student achievement. The middle school being studied, Twin Peaks Middle School, adopted a block schedule for the school year 2002-2003. Data was collected from researcher observations, student and staff observations, informal discussions among student and staff members, student discipline data, GPA data, administrator, teacher, and student surveys, and insights gained from participation in an Alternative Evaluation Team by the researcher. The degree of improvement was determined between the 1st and 2"d quarters of the 2001-2002 school year (traditional schedule) and the 1st and 2"d quarters of the school year 2002-2003 (block schedule). Student discipline data indicates there has been a decline in infractions resulting from classroom, hallway, and bus behaviors. The school population reports feeling more relaxed, less rushed, and more in control of where individual time and energy is being spent. As of result, perceptions of overall campus climate and teacher and student work life appear to have improved following the move to block scheduling. The researcher concluded that at this point, there is not enough conclusive data available to make an informed decision as to whether or not block scheduling will indeed have a positive impact on student achievement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study addressed the effectiveness of block scheduling at the high school level. As the principal of a block scheduled high school, the researcher considered four years of data when the school was using traditional scheduling and four years of data when the school was using block scheduling. Among the areas considered were test scores, discipline referrals, attendance, teachers' and students' perceptions about block scheduling, and school climate. Each of the areas researched was critical in that future decisions concerning block scheduling hinged on the outcome of the project. While all data researched did not produce overwhelming evidence as to the effectiveness of block scheduling, some results were clear enough to help school officials decide the future of the school.

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.
