There are some studies that show in Australia it's even harder for kids to wake up early. Because of the harsh sun, late sunset, and more melatonin in our bodies, kids in Australia are more likely to only get tired at 11pm. Knowing that, getting up for school at 7am seems much harder, doesn't it?

Deep Look, yes - we are actively looking for research that backs up our hypothesis that the most successful media producers are genetically hard-wired to wake up LATE, and therefore production schedules should reflect nature's intention. Slim pickings so far.

I think everything should shift 2hrs later so we can have enough sleep and less stress about feeling guilty for not being an early bird. The early birds should then use the time before work or study for whatever they feel like and let us sleep, cause "Night Owls Sleep Matters Too!" Thank you OvO.

I'm an early bird and night owl complained

when i was 14, i moved to a different middle school in San Diego that started its day at 9:15 am. it was super shocking but really exciting to me because the idea of getting more sleep was amazing to me. i didnt even change my sleeping time that much, i just went to sleep about an hour later than I normally did, but this time I could get up at 8 and be ready in half an hour and have a legitimate good day at school rather than waking up at 6:30 to let myself "fully" wake up at 7, get ready and be at school by 8. Now as a college student with more freedom to choose when my school day starts I'm thankful, because getting 8 or 9 hours of sleep actually lets me focus in class instead of sneaking in naps in the middle of lectures.

My school starts at 7:20 am and my mom wonders why I feel tired all the time

What if each time I wake up without an alarm I wake up at 12 pm... No matter if I go to bed at 10 pm, 12 am, 2 am, 4 am, I always wake up about 12:30 pm. Should I "halve" to say my chronotype is 6 am, or should I take 4 hours, and say mine is 8 am?

Indeed. Light -- natural or otherwise -- can definitely influence your circadian rhythm!

I think there is a lot of evidence showing the importance of a good nights sleep, one schools and teachers can set up a middle ground is by implementing block schedules. I'm college you don't take all your courses on one day 5 days a week, they're split up so that the professors have ample enough time to teach the subject, and the students (who are adults) have the time to schedule their classes around their daily lives. It seems that schools make everything easier for everyone except for the kid. Who must meet the standards of the public schools system no matter how ridiculous it is.

It bothers me that those parents/teachers (not all) are more worried about their students playing sports (most commonly the one most responsible for concussions) than they are about them receiving the highest quality, most productive education. Which is ironic considering it's a school, you know the place you send kids to learn...

I wake up at 8ish, do my home works and still have time for myself, even with 8hrs of sleep.improved my social relationships too

Well maybe if i didnt have 3 hours of homework i could go to bed earlier cause that 90 minutes of yt watching is also very important

WARNING: Before you read this comment, you should know that a.) I'm bad at explaining stuff and b.) I go into a good amount of detail about my school's schedule that you probably don't have to know about or don't care. I was so happy when I went to my high school, which starts at 8:45 on regular days, 9:25 on Wednesday block days, and 9:45 on Thursday block days. I think that more schools should adopt a block schedule like mine. Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays (regular days) have periods 1-6. Wednesdays only have periods 1, 3, and 5 and are about an hour and a half long. Thursdays have periods 2, 4, and 6 and also are about an hour and a half long. Thursdays start later but have less lunch time than Wednesdays.

@PixelOverload

6 жыл бұрын

Probably because it _is_ a stacked survey, school administrations are notorious for that shit.

As I also commented on BrainCraft's recent video on the subject, I'm reluctant to believe that our chronotypes are hardwired into our DNA. I acknowledge that there is some hard science to back up this claim, but I also know that my sleep pattern can change, and doesn't seem to have a predetermined setting. I'll admit that I typically stay up late, and sleep in, and on work days where i have to get up early, I tend to nap in the afternoon after work. However, I'm inclined to believe that this is primarily due to my own bad habits. I have in the past been able to get myself into a good cycle for months on end where I'm actually tired at 10, and can wake up naturally at 6, and then not need a nap after work. It's just starting and maintaining the cycle that is difficult. During the summer when I don't have work or school or other obligations to regulate my sleep cycle, I can indulge, and will find my circadian rhythm isn't even in sync with the earth's rotation. I'll might stay up an hour longer every night, and get up an hour later every morning, until eventually it comes full circle and I've slept only 23 times in 24 days. I have a hard time believing that my circadian rhythm is encoded in my DNA when it can change so drastically as I adjust my habits and lifestyle.

I think school districts should do this. If a student has a certain GPA they can opt for distance learning like during covid. Or they should should do this have one group of students go in the morning and then have the other go in the afternoon/evening. Ask the teachers. If they can get enough teachers whod want to do it then theres no reason not to.

Ah, Spain. The land of siestas and eating dinner after 10 PM. It would be interesting to see studies on that country's chronotypes.

Problem is, it's not just as simple as one school changing their start time. If teachers (as older-than-teenager folks) have later chronotypes, they won't be at their best. And... if you push school start time later, that means ALL schools in the are need to push their start times later in order for sports to start at time that works for all schools. And...if sports start later, that means students get home later, which means they don't get to have dinner with their parents and younger siblings (whose chronotype hasn't changed yet). And...remember that for every age group, the chronotype is a 'bell curve,' and there are plenty of teenagers who feel like busting out of bed as the sun rises and are ready for an early start. I'm not saying I have the answer (the school that I teach at does start all regular classes after 8:45), just that it's not as simple as changing start times at schools.

Yes because children need more sleep than adults and it's important and to much school work it's abuse and we need change and good education and undeveloped body and teens brains work later the day and only 8 hours at school work an adults 26 , that's why it matters and we need change like 11am , adults need at least less hours because their older and aging decreases
