A Study of Teacher Beliefs on the Efficacy of Block Scheduling.
Staunton, Jim
NASSP Bulletin, v81 n593 p73-80 Dec 1997
Teachers at four block-scheduled schools in the Huntington Beach (California) Union High School District were asked whether the change yielded differences in instructional practices, assessment techniques, social interaction, curriculum, and school management. Responses to an (anonymous) Likert scale indicate that block scheduling allows teachers to vary their instructional practices, experiment with new assessments, reduce their hectic pace, and cover less material in greater detail.
