| Abstract | The National Education Commission on Time and Learning (NECT&L) is an independent advisory body authorized by Congress through Public Law 102-62, the Education Council Act of 1991. The commission is undertaking a comprehensive review of the relationship between time and learning in elementary and secondary education, including international comparisons, the use of time in and out of the school, the use of facilities, year-round professional opportunities for teachers, and estimated costs of adopting longer school days and years. Albuquerque Public Schools (APS) adopted year-round education in 1986. Teachers and students in three evaluation cycles have reported improved learning and higher teacher morale. However, "protracted and bitter community opposition" has arisen, particularly among more affluent residents. This paper summarizes proceedings of a hearing where testimonies were offered by various individuals, with a focus on time, learning, and systemic change. The second day of the hearing focused on student learning and motivation, professional development, educational technology, and the needs of English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) students. A list of witnesses' recommendations, one figure, and a list of participants are included. (LMI) |
