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.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to compare middle school teachers' perceptions on student learning in A/B block schedules and traditional schedules in schools with grade configurations of 6 through 8. Responses to the survey were disaggregated by schedule type and years of teaching experience within groups and between groups. Middle school teachers in the A/B block schedule perceived their schedule had a greater impact on student learning on over 90% of the survey responses. In addition the A/B block schedule teachers perceived their instructional strategies were more diverse than the traditional schedule middle teachers. While professional development demonstrated significant differences between the two groups, the differences were not as many or as large.

Book excerpt: BLOCK SCHEDULING IN AN ERA OF COMMON CORE CURRICULUM: ACASE STUDY OF ADMINISTRATORS’ AND TEACHERS’ PERCEPTIONSFOR CLASSROOM PRACTICES AND ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENTThe landscape of modern educational practice in the United States features aterrain that is often jagged while still being predictable in nature. The needs of studentsare varied and complex and despite the challenges faced, most leaders in the field ofeducation agree that schools should be a place that is preparatory, challenging, andengaging. In recent years, there has been a great amount of discussion and theorizing onhow to increase academic engagement within the classroom to the depth that mostprofessionals agree is needed. Through this case study, I examined block scheduling in ahigh school as a vehicle for increasing academic engagement. I studied teacher’sperceptions and understandings of strategies used to increase student achievement whichultimately led to defining academic engagement through behavioral, cognitive, andemotional lenses. With a holistic definition, I was able to study the impact of blockscheduling on academic engagement in the classroom. This case study employed the useof Charlotte Danielson’s Framework for Teaching (Danielson, 2013) as a lens forviewing the teacher’s role in securing proper engagement within the classroom andBloom’s taxonomy revised (Anderson, 2001) to determine the complexity of studentwork. I considered both the current climate and trends of education in the United Statesas well as the culture of the community in which the study was conducted. Qualitativedata regarding the effects of block scheduling on academic engagement were collected through individual interviews, observations, and analysis of artifacts particular to the casestudy site. Through synthesis of the data collected, I determined that although a blockschedule requires continued targeted professional development and by itself may notenhance classroom instruction, it can prove to be impactful on fostering meaningfulteacher-student relationships leading to a positive school climate.
