	Encyclopedia: Block time
		Block time is one way of approaching the problem of the nature of time.
		The arrow of time is a concept used because almost all of the processes of physics at the microscopic level are time symmetric, meaning that the equations used to describe them are the same if the direction of time were reversed, yet when we describe things at the macroscopic level...
		Block time has implications for the concept of free will, in that it proposes that future events are as immutably fixed and impossible to change as past events (see determinism).

	Time [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		If physical time, psychological time, and biological time are three different kinds of time, then three answers are required to the question "What is time?" and some commentary is required regarding their relationships, such as whether one is the most fundamental.
		Spacetime is four-dimensional and a continuum, with time being a distinguished, one-dimensional sub-space of this continuum.
		Proper time along a worldline in 4-d spacetime is the time elapsed by an object having that worldline, as shown on an ideal clock having the same worldline.

		The form of block schedule often associated with the middle school is a flexible block of time.
		The high school 4x4 block schedule is problematic for implementation at the middle level because courses are offered on a semester or trimester basis, and students cannot be enrolled in all required core classes the same semester.
		As students are presented with varying blocks of time in which to learn, accommodations in curriculum and pedagogical strategies, as well as a change toward students taking more responsibility for their own learning are needed for flexible block scheduling to become effective (Salvaterra and Adams, 1995).

	V.82 No.3 Pages 214-222/November 2000: Queen
		Block scheduling has been criticized for lower content retention from one level of a subject to the next and for the extensive time required for independent study outside of class.
		While the perceived loss of instructional time has been one of the most frequent complaints about block scheduling, Skrobarcek and her colleagues found that much instructional time is wasted in block scheduling if teachers fail to vary the learning activities and teaching strategies.
		Schools using a block schedule cannot be successful when as many as one-third of the teachers are not using interactive methods or are wasting instructional time by not making use of the last 30 minutes of class.

	EPAA Vol. 7 No. 29 Veal & Schreiber: Block Scheduling Effects
		Block mathematics is an ideal format for obtaining more credits in mathematics, but the block format does little for mathematics achievement and conceptual understanding.
		Thus, the argument that block scheduling would allow more students to take more mathematics classes is true, the impact of the increased learning is not justified due to the lack of time and curriculum in the mathematics classes due to the shorter class hours in the block format.
		In essence, block mathematics is good for taking more mathematics classes and obtaining more graduation credits, but the block format per se does little to increase students' understanding of mathematics.

		Data is encoded using a space-time block code and the encoded data is split into n streams which are simultaneously transmitted using n transmit antennas.
		Space-time block codes are designed to achieve the maximum diversity order for a given number of transmit and receive antennas subject to the constraint of having a simple decoding algorithm.
		For the specific cases of two, three and four transmit antennas, space-time block codes are designed that achieve respectively all, 3/4 and 3/4 of maximum possible transmission rate using arbitrary complex constellations.

	BLOCK SCHEDULING from a MATH TEACHER
		Block scheduling is typically a restructuring of the daily schedule to create longer units of time for each class.
		Block scheduling advocates cite the grueling pace of a typical school day - An average student is in eight different locations pursuing eight different activities during the six and a half hour school day.
		Two years is barely enough time to negate the Hawthorne Effect (the burst of enthusiasm in response to the "newness" of a project that often leads to temporary improvements).

	AVR Freaks :: View topic - SD/MMC write block time so long?
		The time that the higher current is drawn during a block write is 50 ms, which is 100x what is listed as "typical".
		To be clear, I am measuring the time that the flash memory draws a higher current during writing a block, not the time to transfer to block to the flash.
		I presumed your transfer time was far less than that, and you were seeing excessive current draw for more than the 0.5ms one might expect after the transfer completes and the write starts.
