FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
Module 7 – Core Topic 13Effective Teaching:
• Understanding how people think and learn
• The “art of teaching”
• Psychological understanding / people skills
Are all of your students registered at FAASafety.gov?
3Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
Core Topic 13 (Effective Teaching) Objectives
• Review attributes of an effective pilot who is also an effective instructor.
• Discuss barriers to learning and student psychological and physiological needs.
• Further develop and demonstrate the required knowledge, skills, and abilities needed to be an effective instructor.
• Introduce teaching methodologies used to help develop critical thinking skills for the instructor and pilot-in-training.

The Teaching Profession for Pilots
• Aviators Model Code of Conduct found at http://www.secureaviation.org/
• Aviation Instructor’s Handbook, found at
http://www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/handbooks_manuals/
5Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
• Provide the atmosphere for students to become seekers of information, not merely receptacles of information
• Be serious without creating excessive stress• Have a flexible teaching plan in mind, but be
ever on the lookout for the "teachable moment"
• Be positive toward trainees - guard against sending unintentional messages (disdain, condescension, racism, sexism, etc.).
• Be confident (not arrogant) and comfortable in not knowing everything.
Goals of Teaching
6Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
The Instructor
• Your personality shapes your teaching style• All teachers need practice teaching• Good flight instructors work at being good pilots
and good teachers• Good instructors are constantly looking for
ways to improve • Teaching techniques must change with
changes in the aviation industry and environment (e.g. NextGen)
7Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
The Learner (Pilot-in Training)
• Teaching style must incorporate different techniques for different trainees and different settings
• Set expectations with trainee• Barriers to learning:
– Boredom– Stress– Fatigue– Lack of motivations
• Motivational techniques
8Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
Instructional Format
• The use of multiple instructional formats aids in meeting the variety of course objectives and enhances learning for the pilot-in-training
• Common instructional formats in aviation:– Independent reading, lecture, computer-assisted
instruction, demonstration, group discussion
• Common instructional tools in aviation:– Part task trainers, flight training devices, flight
simulators, aircraft
9Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
Effective Teaching Techniques• A new approach to teaching should be tried when it has
been shown to be valid and reliable• State what should be learned• Situate the topic in context• Involve trainees in the process by having them, present
the problem, respond to questions, summarize the findings and discussion, and research and report on unanswered questions
• Use questions effectively• Have trainee summarize the "take-home" points at the
end of the discussion/activity
10Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
Trainee Evaluations
• Student-centered grading• Evaluate the trainee’s conceptual knowledge
and critical thinking skills• Rote (“Describe”) learning vs. Understanding
(Explain); Application (Practice, Perform); Correlation (Manage/Decide)
• Situational evaluations vs. training to the test• Valid and reliable measures• Evidence of learning
11Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
The Process of Learning
• Critical thinking - the use of those cognitive skills or strategies that increase the probability of a desirable outcome
• Reflective thinking - a part of the critical thinking process referring specifically to the processes of analyzing and making judgments about what has happened– Learners are aware of and control their learning by actively
assessing what they know, what they need to know, and how they bridge that gap – during learning situations

15Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
Example Practical Test Standards IntroductionIn preparation for each practical test, the examiner shall develop a written “plan of action” for each practical test. The “plan of action” is a tool, for the sole use of the examiner, to be used in evaluating the applicant. The plan of action need not be grammatically correct or in any formal format. The plan of action must contain all of the required AREAS OF OPERATION and TASKS and any optional TASKS selected by the examiner. The plan of action will include a scenario that allows the evaluation of as many required AREAS OF OPERATION and TASKS as possible without disruption. During the mission the examiner interjects problems and emergencies which the applicant must manage. It should be structured so that most of the AREAS OF OPERATION and TASKS are accomplished within the mission.

April 1 through June 30, 2010
NTSB Probable Cause:
• The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the pilots’ inadequate planning, judgment, and airmanship in the performance of a 180º turn maneuver inside of a limited turning space.
19Federal AviationAdministration

• What are the technical and non-technical skills involved in this event?
• Design a training scenario that you think could have prevented this accident.

What is FITS?
• FAA-Industry Training Standards• http://wtww.faa.gov/training_testing/training
/fits/• Non-regulatory (similar to Part 121 Airline
Advanced Qualification Program)• Originally conceived to be “a structured
way to teach pilots to safely, competently, and efficiently operate a technically advanced piston or light jet aircraft”
35Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
FITS Mission Statement
• Improve pilot learning to safely, competently, and efficiently operate a technically advanced piston or light jet aircraft in the modern National Airspace System (NAS).
• Implement training that reduces the human error element and accelerates acquisition of higher-level judgment and decision-making skills.
36Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7

Who is Involved in FITS?
• Manufacturers• Training providers• Insurance• Associations
37Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
History Leading to FITS
• Pilot training has not evolved much in 60 years (Tom Glista, 2008)
• Technology outpaces training• Accident/incident causal factors show pilots
not keeping up with the automation or over dependence on automated functions
• Training science has developed new ways to teach highly complex skills
38Federal AviationAdministration

Safety Record of TAA
• NTSB March 2010 safety study:
– Analyzed accident rates of over 8,000 small piston-powered airplanes manufactured between 2002 and 2006
– Found that those equipped with glass cockpits had a higher fatal accident rate than similar aircraft with conventional instruments
43Federal AviationAdministration
FAASTeam CFI Workshop 7
April 1 through June 30, 2010
Why?
• The Safety Board determined that because glass cockpits are both complex and vary from aircraft to aircraft in function, design and failure modes, pilots are not always provided with all of the information they need – both by aircraft manufacturers and the Federal Aviation Administration – to adequately understand the unique operational and functional details of the primary flight instruments in their airplanes.
44Federal AviationAdministration

NTSB 830
• 3/08/2010 Change for immediate notification• “A complete loss of information, excluding
flickering, from more than 50 percent of an aircraft’s cockpit displays known as:– Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) displays;
Other displays of this type, which generally include a primary flight display (PFD), primary navigation display (PND), and other integrated displays...”
