At the contradiction between the traditional school time-space framework and educational reform becomes increasingly prominent,the experience of school time reform in American schools has provided valuable lessons.The aim of American school time reform is to improve the quality of education and expand the public value of school education.It revolves around a revolution in both quantity and quality,ultimately focusing on supporting sustained,in-depth learning and meeting individualized learning needs.A series of reform measures have led to a fundamental shift in the American perception of time.The results of school time reform seem to indicate that,in most cases,improving the time structure is more conducive to enhancing the quality of education than merely extending the amount of time.Furthermore,real educational reform only occurs when school time reform is linked with changes in the curriculum,teaching methods,teachers,and evaluation methods.
