Training Effectiveness Evaluation and Utilization Demonstration of a Low Cost Cockpit Procedures Trainer.
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate a prototype low cost cockpit procedures trainer (LCCPT) for the SH-3H aircraft. During Phase I of the study, pilots trained in the LCCPT were compared in subsequent SH-3H performance with a historical control group trained in Device 2C44, a much more expensive conventional cockpit procedures trainer. The LCCPT and 2C44 groups performed equally well in the SH-3H. For tasks practiced in the LCCPT, transfer of device training to SH-3H performance was 95 percent as estimated through a curve fitting technique. During Phase II, the adaptability of the LCCPT to student-directed instruction was evaluated. The students developed required levels of proficiency, and they appeared able to identify weaknesses in their performance and to direct their practice toward overcoming them.
