Increasingly so. ~90 minute "block" classes are fairly common at the high school level in the US.

- VLM 10y agoMy middle school kids have English Lit as a block. Honestly, as a grade school kid if I was reading something I enjoyed, 90 minutes was not much of an achievement. You can will yourself thru something you hate for 45 minutes, gym class perhaps. You probably have to be a grown adult (or older) to tolerate something like a worthless 90 minute class or business meeting.
- sandworm101 10y ago90 minutes is too long. I remember lots of rushing between classes. We didn't sit for a 90 minutes in one room. Much of this talk about getting the blood flowing during lectures would probably be addressed through shorter classes; Not dedicated exercise but the simple act of getting up and walking from one class to the other more often.
