Barker, Ballard M., Ed. – 1996
This document contains three papers on aviation education. "Academic Integrity in Higher Education: Is Collegiate Aviation Education at Risk?" (Jeffrey A. Johnson) discusses academic integrity and legal issues in higher education and argues that academic integrity needs to be an integral part of collegiate aviation education if students expect to…

Bowen, Brent D. – 1990
The report analyzes data on the number of women pilots and the number of women faculty in colleges and universities that offer a baccalaureate degree in aviation. Data were obtained from "U.S. Civil Airmen Statistics,""The Chronicle of Higher Education Almanac," and a survey of the 69 collegiate institutions that have aviation programs. The data…

This document consists of an interim report and a final report which describe the second and third phases of a project designed to determine the utility and utilization of sophisticated hardware and software capabilities known as advanced instructional features (AIFs). Used with an aircrew training device (ATD), AIFs permit a simulator instructor…

Caro, Paul W. – 1977
Concerned with the general problem of the effectiveness of simulator training, this report reflects information developed during the conduct of aircraft simulator training research projects sponsored by the Air Force, Army, Navy, and Coast Guard. Problems are identified related to simulator design, testing, and use, all of which impact upon…

Seeds, Fred F. – Journal of Aerospace Education, 1974
Describes an individualized aviation course for high school seniors. The course, broken down into Learner Education Guides with students progressing at their own learning rates, consists of the history of aviation, career opportunities, the space program, basic aeronautics, navigation, meteorology, Federal Aviation Administration regulations and…

MEYER, DONALD E. – 1966
TWO EXPERIMENTS WERE CONDUCTED TO EVALUATE A SELF-STUDY PROGRAM PREPARED WITHIN TWO OPERATIONAL FIGHTER-INTERCEPTOR SQUADRONS. BASED ON A TECHNICAL ORDER MANUAL, IT CONSISTED OF SEQUENCED MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS WITH A SIMPLE PUNCHBOARD AS A CONFIRMING DEVICE. IN EXPERIMENT ONE, TWO OPERATIONAL SQUADRONS WERE DIVIDED INTO TWO GROUPS JUDGED TO BE…

Matheny, W. G. – 1975
The study reports the work done by a panel of experts in training research toward defining priority research investigations to be undertaken through the Human Resources Laboratory, Flying Training Division (HRL/FT). A list of recommended investigations judged to be important for increasing the effectiveness of beginning pilot training was…

Connelly, Edward M.; And Others – 1974
This report documents the theory, structure, and implementation of a performance processor (written in FORTRAN IV) that can accept performance demonstration data representing various levels of operator's skill and, under user control, analyze data to provide candidate performance measures and validation test results. The processor accepts two…

Herzberg, Frederick I.; And Others – 1969
The study was an investigation of student pilot motivation for, and toward, the Air Training Command's undergraduate pilot training (UPT) program. The motivation hygiene approach was used to identify the motivational factors operating in the UPT program systematically. This approach has been used extensively in industry and with success in a…

Prophet, Wallace W.; Boyd, H. Alton – 1970
An evaluation was made of the training effectiveness of two cockpit procedures training devices, differing greatly in physical fidelity and cost, for use on the ground for a twin-engine, turboprop, fixed-wing aircraft. One group of students received training in cockpit procedures in a relatively expensive, sophisticated, computerized trainer,…

Wright, Robert H. – 1973
A questionnaire survey was conducted of Army aviators who had experienced extended periods of nonflying or of flying only the minimum number of hours required by Army regulations to maintain proficiency, in order to determine the loss of flying ability experienced and the refresher training required for combat readiness. Analysis of the data…

Caro, Paul W., Jr.; And Others – 1968
As part of the Army's effort to use synthetic devices to improve training, researchers evaluated a captive helicopter attached to a ground effects machine. Experimental groups received varying amounts of pre-flight practice tasks designed to develop flight skills, while control groups received no device training. Student flight performance during…

Caro, Paul W. – 1971
An innovative flight training program, its development, and initial administration are described. The program involves use of a commercially available training device in a twin-engine transition and instrument training course. Principal features of the training include redefinition of the flight instructor's role, and incentive award system,…

Matheny, W. G.; And Others – 1971
A study was conducted to determine the ways in which multi-sensory cues can be simulated and effectively used in the training of pilots. Two analytical bases, one called the stimulus environment approach and the other an information array approach, are developed along with a cue taxonomy. Cues are postulated on the basis of information gained from…
