The Block Plan in Higher Education

The block plan is an immersive learning curricular model designed for students to take one class at a time for a specific amount of time (3.5 weeks at CC). CC Faculty, Students, and Staff created it, spearheaded by Professor Glenn Brooks.

Since its inception on Colorado College's campus, six schools have adopted the same or similar curricular models. In all of American higher education, there are only seven schools out of nearly 4000 with this format.
