Whereas traditional classroom instruction requires pilots to be
pulled 'off the line', a training facility to be maintained and
instructors to be compensated, e-learning is extremely
cost-effective and therefore an attractive alternative. However,
e-learning only saves money if the training is effective. Eager to
reap financial benefits, e-learning courses have a history of
varying dramatically in quality. The poorest courses are those that
directly convert classroom-based presentations to an online format,
not recognizing that computer-based instruction is an entirely
different medium. Addressing this issue directly, e-Learning in
Aviation explores the characteristics of computer-based course
design and multimedia that are associated with improved learning.
It then provides guidance regarding how to use research-based
instructional design principles to plan, design, develop, and
implement an e-Learning course within an aviation organization and
continually evaluate whether or not the course is accomplishing
instructional goals. A blended learning strategy, which
incorporates both face-to-face and computer-based instruction, is
suggested as the most appropriate choice for the majority of
aviation companies. The goal of this approach is to utilize
e-Learning as a tool to reduce time at the training centre and
thereby increase pilot productivity and potentially improve the
quality of training. Although the examples within this book focus
on pilot training, the suggestions and guidelines are applicable to
all employee groups within the industry.
