Aircrew Training Devices: Instructional Support Features.

Abstract

This report presents relationships between aircrew training device (ATD) instructional support features and training requirements. Instructional support features include ATD hardware and software capabilities that permit instructors to manipulate, supplement or otherwise control student learning experiences. The instructional features addressed are freeze; automated demonstrations; record and replay; automated cuing and coaching; manual and programmable sets of initializing conditions; manual and programmable malfunction control; atd-mounted audio visual media; automated performance measurement; automated performance alerts; annunciator and repeater instruments; closed circuit television; automated adaptive training; programmed mission scenarios; automated controllers; graphic and text readouts of controller information; computer controlled threats; computer managed instruction; recorded briefings; debriefing aids; and hardcopy printouts. Each feature is discussed, as appropriate, in terms of its operation, related features, instructional values, observed applications, utility (use-related) information, related research, and design considerations.
