Synthesis of Research on Time and Learning.

Walberg, Herbert J.

Educational Leadership, v45 n6 p76-85 Mar 1988

Reviews current psychological research on the effects of time, discusses policy and practical implications, and proposes "productive time" rather than "allocated time" or "time-on-task" as a new focus of educational reform. Productive time allows students to engage in lessons adjusted to their differences in learning rate and background knowledge. Includes 32 references. (MLH)
