Book Synopsis The 71F Advantage by : National Defense University Press
Download or read book The 71F Advantage written by National Defense University Press and published by NDU Press. This book was released on 2010-09 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes a foreword by Major General David A. Rubenstein. From the editor: "71F, or "71 Foxtrot," is the AOC (area of concentration) code assigned by the U.S. Army to the specialty of Research Psychology. Qualifying as an Army research psychologist requires, first of all, a Ph.D. from a research (not clinical) intensive graduate psychology program. Due to their advanced education, research psychologists receive a direct commission as Army officers in the Medical Service Corps at the rank of captain. In terms of numbers, the 71F AOC is a small one, with only 25 to 30 officers serving in any given year. However, the 71F impact is much bigger than this small cadre suggests. Army research psychologists apply their extensive training and expertise in the science of psychology and social behavior toward understanding, preserving, and enhancing the health, well being, morale, and performance of Soldiers and military families. As is clear throughout the pages of this book, they do this in many ways and in many areas, but always with a scientific approach. This is the 71F advantage: applying the science of psychology to understand the human dimension, and developing programs, policies, and products to benefit the person in military operations. This book grew out of the April 2008 biennial conference of U.S. Army Research Psychologists, held in Bethesda, Maryland. This meeting was to be my last as Consultant to the Surgeon General for Research Psychology, and I thought it would be a good idea to publish proceedings, which had not been done before. As Consultant, I'd often wished for such a document to help explain to people what it is that Army Research Psychologists "do for a living." In addition to our core group of 71Fs, at the Bethesda 2008 meeting we had several brand-new members, and a number of distinguished retirees, the "grey-beards" of the 71F clan. Together with longtime 71F colleagues Ross Pastel and Mark Vaitkus, I also saw an unusual opportunity to capture some of the history of the Army Research Psychology specialty while providing a representative sample of current 71F research and activities. It seemed to us especially important to do this at a time when the operational demands on the Army and the total force were reaching unprecedented levels, with no sign of easing, and with the Army in turn relying more heavily on research psychology to inform its programs for protecting the health, well being, and performance of Soldiers and their families."
Book Synopsis Aviation Selection Test Battery Component Predictiveness of Primary Flight Training Outcomes Among Diverse Groups by : Ramon A. Lopez
Download or read book Aviation Selection Test Battery Component Predictiveness of Primary Flight Training Outcomes Among Diverse Groups written by Ramon A. Lopez and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aviation Selection Test Battery (ASTB) has been the qualifying benchmark for the Naval Aviation since World War II. While it is necessary that test scores effectively select the candidates with the greatest chance for success, the ASTB strides toward increasing diversity while maintaining low attrition. Using archived Student Naval Aviator and Student Naval Flight Officer ASTB subtest scores and Primary Flight Training (PFT) records, this study examined the ASTB's predictive ability with respect performance in PFT. Specifically the study consists of two analyses: 1) determine how well the ASTB could predict majority and minority group performance in primary flight training; and 2) determine how well the ASTB could predict success in each training phase and for the entire sample and select groups. The linear regression analysis successfully fit a significant model for the entire sample and Caucasians, but was unable to produce a significant model for African Americans or Hispanics, as there was insufficient data available for either group. The model, when fitted to the entire dataset, with race as an independent variable, yielded a result where all independent variables were significant. The results from the logistic regression models showed there was evidence that four of the ASTB subtests were significant and positive predictors for the entire sample and Caucasians; but was unable to produce a significant model for African Americans or Hispanics. It is apparent that the small data set for minorities limited this study. Efforts to collect data from personnel records should be conducted to obtain all scores from flight training, so that these groups can be further investigated.

Book Synopsis American Women and Flight since 1940 by : Deborah G. Douglas
Download or read book American Women and Flight since 1940 written by Deborah G. Douglas and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women run wind tunnel experiments, direct air traffic, and fabricate airplanes. American women have been involved with flight from the beginning, but until 1940, most people believed women could not fly, that Amelia Earhart was an exception to the rule. World War II changed everything. "It is on the record thatwomen can fly as well as men," stated General Henry H. Arnold, commanding general of the Army Air Forces. The question became "Should women fly?" Deborah G. Douglas tells the story of this ongoing debate and its impact on American history. From Jackie Cochran, whose perseverance led to the formation of the Women's Army Service Pilots (WASP) during World War II to the recent achievements of Jeannie Flynn, the Air Force's first woman fighter pilot and Eileen Collins, NASA's first woman shuttle commander, Douglas introduces a host of determined women who overcame prejudice and became military fliers, airline pilots, and air and space engineers. Not forgotten are stories of flight attendants, air traffic controllers, and mechanics. American Women and Flight since 1940 is a revised and expanded edition of a Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum reference work. Long considered the single best reference work in the field, this new edition contains extensive new illustrations and a comprehensive bibliography.

Appendix C provides an overview of Medal of Honor conferral in the campaign. An annotated bibliography suggests sources for preliminary study.
Book Synopsis Student Pilot Aptitude as an Indicator of Success in a Part 141 Collegiate Flight Training Program by : Maureen R. McFarland
Download or read book Student Pilot Aptitude as an Indicator of Success in a Part 141 Collegiate Flight Training Program written by Maureen R. McFarland and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Predicting flight training success has been well researched in military aviation yet there is limited information pertaining to general aviation. The purpose of this study was to determine if attributes of pilot performance could be used to differentiate students in a collegiate flight training program. Several pre-entry and flight training attributes were examined to see if any served as predictors of success. A general survey was administered to explore why students may or may not have chosen to remain in the flight training program and/or pursue the certified flight instructor (CFI) certificate. Finally, the Tabular Speed Test℗ was administered to further understand flight student population characteristics as they pertained to existing aviation selection test batteries.The participants in this study were 242 persons attending a Midwestern post-secondary institution who began and completed the private pilot flight course between the spring of 2010 and fall of 2014. Logistic regression results indicated that it was possible to predict student completion of the multi-engine flight course 73.2% of the time (X2 (7) = 23.349, p

Book Synopsis The Craft of Research, 2nd edition by : Wayne C. Booth
Download or read book The Craft of Research, 2nd edition written by Wayne C. Booth and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1995, more than 150,000 students and researchers have turned to The Craft of Research for clear and helpful guidance on how to conduct research and report it effectively . Now, master teachers Wayne C. Booth, Gregory G. Colomb, and Joseph M. Williams present a completely revised and updated version of their classic handbook. Like its predecessor, this new edition reflects the way researchers actually work: in a complex circuit of thinking, writing, revising, and rethinking. It shows how each part of this process influences the others and how a successful research report is an orchestrated conversation between a researcher and a reader. Along with many other topics, The Craft of Research explains how to build an argument that motivates readers to accept a claim; how to anticipate the reservations of thoughtful yet critical readers and to respond to them appropriately; and how to create introductions and conclusions that answer that most demanding question, "So what?" Celebrated by reviewers for its logic and clarity, this popular book retains its five-part structure. Part 1 provides an orientation to the research process and begins the discussion of what motivates researchers and their readers. Part 2 focuses on finding a topic, planning the project, and locating appropriate sources. This section is brought up to date with new information on the role of the Internet in research, including how to find and evaluate sources, avoid their misuse, and test their reliability. Part 3 explains the art of making an argument and supporting it. The authors have extensively revised this section to present the structure of an argument in clearer and more accessible terms than in the first edition. New distinctions are made among reasons, evidence, and reports of evidence. The concepts of qualifications and rebuttals are recast as acknowledgment and response. Part 4 covers drafting and revising, and offers new information on the visual representation of data. Part 5 concludes the book with an updated discussion of the ethics of research, as well as an expanded bibliography that includes many electronic sources. The new edition retains the accessibility, insights, and directness that have made The Craft of Research an indispensable guide for anyone doing research, from students in high school through advanced graduate study to businesspeople and government employees. The authors demonstrate convincingly that researching and reporting skills can be learned and used by all who undertake research projects. New to this edition: Extensive coverage of how to do research on the internet, including how to evaluate and test the reliability of sources New information on the visual representation of data Expanded bibliography with many electronic sources
Book Synopsis Handbook on Personalized Learning for States, Districts, and Schools by : Marilyn Murphy
Download or read book Handbook on Personalized Learning for States, Districts, and Schools written by Marilyn Murphy and published by IAP. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent passage of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) presents new opportunities and greater flexibility in efforts to personalize learning for all children. The Handbook on Personalized Learning for States, Districts, and Schools provides insight and guidance on maximizing that new flexibility. Produced by the Center on Innovations in Learning (CIL), one of seven national content centers funded by the U.S. Department of Education, this volume suggests how teachers can enhance personalized learning by cultivating relationships with students and their families to better understand a child’s learning and motivation. Personalized learning also encourages the development of students’ metacognitive, social, and emotional competencies, thereby fostering students’ self?direction in their own education, one aimed at mastery of knowledge and skills and readiness for career and college. Chapters address topics across the landscape of personalized learning, including co?designing instruction and learning pathways with students; variation in the time, place, and pace of learning, including flipped and blended classrooms; and using technology to manage and analyze the learning process. The Handbook’s chapters include Action Principles to guide states, districts, and schools in personalizing learning.
