Evaluation of Individualized Instruction for Welders-HT 'A' School, San Diego.

Abstract

A preliminary evaluation is made of an individualized training program for fuel gas and arc welding at Hull Technician Class A School, San Diego. Individualized instruction differed from former training procedures in that students were able to select the content, rate, and method most appropriate to their learning experience. Subjects were 184 trainees attending the school. One-half were trained according to the conventional lock-step method and the remaining 92 subjects received individualized instruction. Some conclusions and recommendations were drawn from this evaluation. (Modified author abstract)
