TOPIC #1
THINKING ABOUT LEARNING
(THE NUMBER GAME)
TOPIC #2
ENHANCING LEARNING AND MEMORY
Beginnings and Endings
Concrete Versus Abstract Information
Association
People tend to remember more from the beginning and end of a learning session. If you want to have people remember something from the middle of a learning session, it needs to be more memorable. Memorable things are often colorful, bizarre, funny, emotional, or different from the pattern of events.
People tend to remember information that they can turn into a visual image. Abstract ATC concepts can be learned easier if they are converted into visual images. For example… “When you think about how aircraft turn, think about what a race car does on a curve. An aircraft needs to create a bank just like a race car does around a curve on a raceway”.
People tend to remember more when they can associate the information with something important to them. The brain does not soak in information like a sponge. Every new fact or concept learned is added to an existing chain of information.
Chunking
Mastery Learning
People tend to remember more information when it is presented in clusters or groups. The number of new items people can remember is “Seven: Plus or Minus Two”. In other words, some people can remember only five items and others can remember nine items. Most people cannot recall over nine items. However, people can remember five chunks of the information that may contain several items within each chunk. By chunking, the amount of items remembered can be increased dramatically.
Chunking also helps to form associations for trainees. If information is provided in an organized fashion, trainees will be able to link it more effectively to existing knowledge.
“Mastery Learning” is ensuring that the trainee learns the foundation “chunks” of knowledge and skills before proceeding to the more advanced “chunks”. A quality foundation is needed before building the next stories of a building, and each story of the building is as stable as the one below it.
A weak foundation may prevent a trainee from concentrating on the more advanced skills such as maintaining situation awareness. Correcting foundation problems may free up the trainee to do better thinking.

FEEDBACK
Situation #1
A training team reaches agreement that the trainee needs skill enhancement training on voice quality and speed while reading ATC clearances. The skill enhancement training includes the following:
4 hours to observe effective clearance delivery Playback of his/her own audio recordings 2 additional weeks of OJT
Situation #2
The secondary OJTI is away on a 2-week vacation. The primary OJTI calls in sick. The supervisor informs the trainee that OJT will have to wait
until the primary OJTI is back. The trainee asks why another OJTI can’t provide OJT. The supervisor states that only training team members can provide OJT. Another OJTI would have to be added to the training team.
Situation #3
The trainee has reached 75% of OJT time required for certification. The supervisor has just completed the 75% performance skill check. The
trainee’s performance was exemplary. After the performance skill check, all of the training team members agree that the trainee is ready for
certification. Because there is consensus, the supervisor decides to count the performance skill check as the certification skill check.
Situation #4
A trainee has reached 100% of OJT time limit and is assigned 2 additional weeks. The maximum amount of additional OJT for this position is 2
weeks. After completing the additional OJT, the supervisor conducts a certification skill check. The trainee’s performance is still not acceptable.
The training team decides that the trainee should be given skill enhancement training followed by another certification skill check.
Situation #5
A CEB is being conducted for a trainee who has not been able to certify within the time limit and additional OJT time. The training review is being conducted by the ATCFO, the Training Chief, and the Crew Chief, who was
the trainee’s secondary OJTI.
Situation #6
LCpl Smith returned from deployment. He was previously qualified on Tower Flight Data and Ground Control and has been away for 7 months. The Tower Chief conducts a performance skill check on both positions
and determines that LCpl Smith meets performance standards.
Situation #7
A trainee has reached 75% of the OJT time limit on Ground Control. During the course of the 75% performance skill check, the trainee’s
supervisor determines that the trainee has stopped progressing. The trainee’s supervisor suspends training.
Situation #8
The trainee’s supervisor conducted a certification skill check. During the certification skill check, the supervisor did not observe the trainee
perform all job functions because traffic was light. All observed functions were satisfactory. However, the trainee’s supervisor decided that the
trainee could not be certified because one item on the position evaluation was marked “not observed”. During the past performance skill check, the
trainee performed all functions in a satisfactory manner.

CONDUCTING PREBRIEFINGS
Situation
During the previous OJT session, the trainee “lost the picture” and you needed to intervene by overriding. Several other people were nearby at
the time. Up to this point, the trainee’s performance had been outstanding. After the override, the trainee was able to recover and
regain control of the situation.
During the debrief, the trainee dwelled on the override. In addition, the trainee appeared upset by the fact that others may have witnessed the
situation. The trainee’s confidence level has been shook up.
Before the next session, you decide to conduct a prebriefing.
What do you want to accomplish in the prebriefing?
How would you conduct the prebriefing?
