In the article, Evans notes that his students fall asleep during hour classes, which discourages lecturers’ teaching abilities. At times the instructors feel agitated by this act, but Evans becomes curious about the issue. Most instructors think that the students are lazy, but Evans thinks that there is more to the problem than just laziness. After carrying out research, Evans samples several students, and the night owl exceeds the early birds. Evans suggests that college lessons begin very early in the morning for the brains of most students. One of the research, members found that waking up very early hinders students from operating to their best potentiality. Most students from the study are not morning people. The researchers also suggest that waking students at the crack of dawn seems risky to their health.
Since most students are more active at night, they should begin their day later. Students’ concentration could increase if school started an hour then. This would also help students to be less sleepy in class. From their research, the body clock of a teenager operates differently. Most of these students are exhausted, having to wake up so early to get to school. At times one may not sleep enough if probably there is a noisy event in school or maybe their roommate invited friends, and the room was loud and interrupted one’s sleep. The government needs to start schools later and increase productivity in the institutions. In their study, Evans found out that students had higher functionality during the later morning around 11 a.m.
In the early morning, most students seemed to be at half the functionality they would be if classes began around 11 a.m. According to Kelley, up to more than eighty students’ percentage could be at their best productivity if schools permitted them to select their own time for a regular six-hour day. Wahlstrom suggest that rising from sleep up during early morning hours hinders students from operating to their best, which has enormous effects on students’ health and academic performance. Some researchers suggest that being conscious and adapting to the morning hours is the way for colleges to combat this issue.
However, Evans suggests that he want students to learn, and colleges go to significant levels to improve academic excellence instead of the free remedy of just changing the timing. Students should be aware of their sleeping cycles. Students should also refrain from signing up for lessons that lead them into waking prior 8 in the morning. This will help them to be at complete functioning level the whole day. Colleges should be concerned of these students. Classes should begin at 10 in the morning. This is because the issue has nothing to do with laziness and it is neither their control. The issue is to do with their bodies.
