 The Problem With Block Scheduling
This is one of several pages on the problems of block scheduling, a major educational "reform" that is being implemented across the country in spite of serious evidence that it is harmful to education.
Block scheduling is said to do many positive things such as reduce truancy, make school less stressful, increase planning time for teachers, improve teacher-student relationships, and provide time for off-site work experiences at local businesses.
Block scheduling is used by about 30 percent of high schools in Iowa and Illinois, according to a series of joint studies.

 Visual formatting model
If a block box (that does not float and is not absolutely positioned) follows the run-in box, the run-in box becomes the first inline box of the block box.
Any floated box becomes a block box that is shifted to the left or right until its outer edge touches the containing block edge or the outer edge of another float.
The containing block for a positioned box is established by the nearest positioned ancestor (or, if none exists, the initial containing block, as in our example).

 Howstuffworks "How a Block and Tackle Works"
A block and tackle is an arrangement of rope and pulleys that allows you to trade force for distance.
To hold the weight in the air you must apply only 25 pounds of force, but to lift the weight 100 feet higher in the air you must now reel in 400 feet of rope.
A block and tackle can contain as many pulleys as you like, although at some point the amount of friction in the pulley shafts begins to become a significant source of resistance.
