At a school in Aachen has now been tested, see if a flexible school is the beginning as the antidote. The students slept as a result, although not for much longer, but their sleep quality improved, which had a positive effect on your well-being and concentration.
At a high school in Aachen high school students can decide for themselves whether or not they appear in the first or second hour in school.

On these days, they slept a good hour longer than usual, increased sleep is the total duration of the students, however, is not significant. Nevertheless, they were very pleased with the model and reported to have slept better, and the teaching material in the school to focus better.
Schüler genießthe freedom
"Perhaps the ability to decide freely and not to be the dictates of the alarm clock delivered to lösen" to many nodes is enough;, Eva Winnebeck, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, said. The authors of the study come to the conclusion that flexible systems can be a viable Alternative to improve the sleep of adolescents.
The flexible school start is possible, because the students need to develop in the framework of the phases of the project parts of the course material independently, what are the hours of ten hours per week &ndash are provided; half of it is in the first hour.
