7.6: Classroom Time

Provide schools and universities with more flexibility in use of classroom time and not rely just on formalistic measures of student performance.

Other Information:

In addition, accreditation agencies should provide schools and universities with more flexibility in use of classroom time and not rely just on formalistic measures of student performance. Students can be promoted when they learn a subject as opposed to when they have sat a minimum number of hours in a seat. Such a system would need more flexible teacher roles, better financing of classroom technology, and regular evaluation and assessment so school officials know what works. Personalization makes sense only if there is documented evidence that students are learning the subject matter and making progress in various areas.
