Engineering-Engineering Technology (58) A multimedia Aviation Maintenance Training Online simulation system is being developed for asynchronous delivery via the Internet for aviation maintenance instruction and related technologies. Three interactive curricular modules are being developed as part of the simulation system: Aircraft Weight and Balance, Aircraft Circuit Maintenance, and Turbine Engine Maintenance. These curricular modules are designed to be adaptive, accessible, time-and-cost effective, pedagogically efficient, and environmentally friendly. Each curricular module emphasizes a trouble-shooting approach and scenarios where functional and procedural mechanisms of aircraft systems are simulated under normal and malfunction conditions, and labor costs of simulated trouble shooting are monitored in real-time feedback scores tracking the students' performance. Creative combinations of real video graphic and schematic illustrations are portrayed in interactive, hands-on simulations. The project is assessing the effectiveness of these instructional materials by determining the impacts on decreasing the training time, increasing job placement and performance, increasing the number of certified aviation workers prepared for the workforce, and determining the effect the moduels have on recruiting underrepresented groups into aviation maintenance technology. The project is creating a network of faculty members from schools with avionics programs, industry practitioners, and educational specialists, who have expertise in aviation maintenance, engineering technology, instructional design and curricular development, and asynchronous learning. Faculty members are participating in workshops that train them how to use the curriculum, demonstrate the transportability of the materials, and provide assessment information to determine the effectiveness of student learning.The project is focusing on recruiting and retaining women students in the avionics program. A summer camp for high school students uses the curriculum to engage the students in hand-on activities. The camp and faculty workshops are being held concurrently in order to observe how students become engaged in learning when using this curriculum.

（58）正在开发一个多媒体航空维修培训在线模拟系统，以便通过互联网异步提供航空维修指导和相关技术。作为模拟系统的一部分，正在开发三个交互式课程模块：飞机重量和平衡、飞机电路维护和涡轮机发动机维护。这些课程模块的设计是适应性，可访问的，时间和成本效益，教学效率和环境友好。每个课程模块都强调故障排除方法和场景，在正常和故障条件下模拟飞机系统的功能和程序机制，并在跟踪学生表现的实时反馈分数中监控模拟故障排除的人工成本。创造性的组合真实的视频图形和示意图描绘在互动，动手模拟。该项目正在评估这些教学材料的有效性，方法是确定其对减少培训时间、增加就业安排和业绩、增加为劳动力队伍准备的合格航空工人人数的影响，并确定这些单元对征聘代表性不足的群体从事航空维修技术工作的影响。该项目正在创建一个由来自航空电子项目学校的教师、行业从业者和教育专家组成的网络，他们在航空维修、工程技术、教学设计和课程开发以及异步学习方面具有专业知识。教员们参加讲习班，培训他们如何使用课程，演示材料的可移植性，并提供评估信息，以确定学生学习的有效性，该项目的重点是招收和留住航空电子方案的女学生。一个高中生夏令营利用课程让学生参与动手活动。夏令营和教师讲习班同时举行，以观察学生如何在使用这一课程时参与学习。
