Reducing aggressive student behaviors through block schedulingLink-Jobe, Jannice 01 August 1996 (has links)
This qualitative and quantitative study examines the potential improvement in
aggressive student behaviors when a block schedule is implemented in a rural, low
socio-economic and multi-cultural middle school.
The number of incidents of physical aggression and harassment were obtained
from official school records for the years 1992-1996. Interviews were also conducted
with staff members who had long term tenure in the school and who had a clear
vision of student behaviors both pre and post-block schedule implementation.
The face value of the school record data suggest a dramatic improvement in
student behaviors. These data corroborate very closely with interview information.
Teachers believe behaviors have substantially improved. In 1992-1993 there were 30
assaults in the school. In 1993-1994 there were 15, in 1994-1995 there were 0, in and
in 1995-1996 there were 4.
The substantive conclusion is the development and implementation of
a block schedule in this particular middle school was highly successful in helping alter
the aggressive behaviors of students. / Graduation date: 1997
