Task Analytic Techniques: Application to the Design of a Flight Simulator Instructor/Operator Console.

Abstract

Instructional Systems Development (ISD) has contributed to the efficiency and low cost of air flight training through the medium of the simulator. Task analysis is a component of ISD, and its application to the improvement of devices such as simulator instructor/operator consoles will continue to enhance the quality of flight training. Task analytic techniques are inextricably interwoven into the design of an instructor/operator console. The application involves the process, persons, and a machine within the context of a flight simulator. The tasks of the instructor and student are primary in the design process. The efficiency and economy of the task analytic process has implications for its use in the future developments of automated flight training. (Author)
