scheduling

There is an argument going on about which is better: block scheduling, which is 4 90-minute classes in one day, or normal scheduling, which is 7-8 shorter, usually 45 minute, classes. I choose the side with the block scheduling. I enjoy this idea much better because if a student has a class they do not enjoy, they only have to put up with it for half the time of other classes. I also feel that when you have a block class, students pay more attention and feel more comfortable because they have double the time to work on assignments. Eventually, the time in normal scheduling and block scheduling for a class is equal, but I enjoy a much quicker take on educational things, and I don't enjoy sitting in a classroom for a year doing nothing. Semesters should've been made for something besides telling us we have to sit in a classroom for another 5 months
