An Implementation Guide for the Experimental Application of Suggestive-Accelerative Learning and Teaching to the Coast Guard Training Environment.
Abstract
This thesis addresses the compatability of Suggestive-Accelerative Learning and Teaching (SALT) with two models of brain function those of Program Structure (Proster) theory and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). The suggestive-based models for the acceleration of learning, Suggestopedia and Suggestive-Accelerative Learning and Teaching (SALT), are reviewed and the conclusion is drawn that the acceleration of learning, evidenced by the application of Suggestopedia and SALT, is due to their compatability with brain function. An implementation guide for the use of the SALT in the U.S. Coast Guard training environment is presented. An experimental design for the application of SALT to the U.S. Coast Guard Emergency Medical Technician School curriculum is proposed. Considerations for this application experiment are reviewed including: class schedule changes, course design, classroom set-up, instructor training requirements, and additional training equipment necessary for experimentation.
