Be aware that while the textbook is well written and comprehensive, the lectures greatly expand upon the text and provide very substantial material not found in the text. Students are responsible for ALL information covered in class, regardless of whether or not you attend regularly. Additionally, all stated course requirements are applicable to all students. Excused absences must be submitted to the instructor prior to class missed. The consumption or use of tobacco and/or food items in any form is not permitted in the classroom. Students with Disabilities University policy 3-01.3 requires that students with disabilities be provided reasonable

6

accommodations to ensure their equal access to course content. If you have a documented disability and require accommodations, please contact the instructor at the beginning of the semester to make arrangements for necessary classroom adjustments. Please note, you must first verify your eligibility for these through Student Accessibility Services (contact 330-672-3391 or visit www.kent.edu/sas for more information on registration procedures). Course Registration/Proper Enrollment: Students have responsibility to ensure they are properly enrolled in classes. You are advised to review your official class schedule (using Student Tools in FlashLine) during the first two weeks of the semester to ensure you are properly enrolled in this class and section. Should you find an error in your class schedule, you have until (date will be provided by the Undergraduate Office in advance) to correct the error with the advising office. If registration errors are not corrected by this date and you continue to attend and participate in classes for which you are not officially enrolled, you are advised now that your will not receive assignment grades or a course grade at the conclusion of the semester for any class in which you are not properly registered. Withdrawal Deadline: For Fall and Spring semesters, the course withdrawal deadline is always the Sunday following the 10th week of the semester. For Intersession, the course withdrawal deadline is always the Sunday following the second week (of three total). For Summer I and III, the course withdrawal deadline is usually the Sunday following the second week (of five total). For Summer II, the course withdrawal deadline is usually the Sunday following the fourth week (of eight total). Failure to properly withdraw from a class may result in forfeiture of all course fees. Academic Honesty: It is expected that the student complete all of the assigned work alone except when otherwise assigned. If the submitted work is the result of a collaborative effort, names of all members and contributors must be included. If references are used, proper notation is expected (I prefer a paper full of notated references than one with plagiarized material). Cheating means to misrepresent the source, nature, or other conditions of your academic work (e.g., tests, papers, projects, assignments) so as to get underserved credit. The use of the intellectual property of others without giving them appropriate credit is a serious academic offense. It is the University’s policy that cheating or plagiarism result in receiving a failing grade (0 points) for the work or the course. Repeat offenses may result in dismissal from the University. The University's administrative policy and procedures regarding student cheating and plagiarism can be found in the University Policy Register, Chapter 3, Topic 7. By submitting any material in this course (or any other) you are certifying that it is free of

7

plagiarism. If you would like more information on plagiarism, what it is, and how to avoid it, please visit the following sites: http://www.indiana.edu/~wts/pamphlets/plagiarism.shtml, http://sja.ucdavis.edu/avoid.htm. Notice of my Copyright and Intellectual Property Rights Any intellectual property displayed or distributed to students during this course (including but not limited to power points, notes, case studies, quizzes, examinations) by the professor remains the intellectual property of the professor. This means that the student may not distribute, publish or provide such intellectual property to any other person or entity for any reason, commercial or otherwise, without the express written permission of the professor.

Course Learning Objectives: 1. Students will obtain an understanding of the professional and ethical responsibilities of becoming a certified flight instructor through material taught out of the Aviation Instructors Handbook (FAA-H-8083-9A) 2. Students will demonstrate their writing skills by analyzing the book “The Fred Factor”, explaining in a three page paper the following questions. Why do you think this book was assigned? In what way will this assignment change your approach to being a professional in the field of aviation? Give an example of a Fred that you know or have met in the past, and explain why. This assignment will assess the student’s writing communication skills. 3. At the conclusion of this course the student will have to demonstrate their knowledge needed to become a professional flight instructor through a series of review board quizzes. These nine quizzes will evaluate the student’s knowledge finding weak areas that will need to be addressed before the student graduates from the course. 4. A review board consisting of three individuals (two flight instructors and a chief instructor) will be the oral portion of the student’s final check ride. This two and a half hour process will require the student to teach a prepared topic assigned from a weak area found from the review board quiz results, and an unprepared topic covering a maneuver similar to the required teaching from the practical test standards. The remaining time will be set aside for general questioning on a wide range of topics including any weak areas found on the review board quizzes. The review board assesses the student’s skills to communicate as a flight instructor. 5. The student will learn certified flight instructors never stops learning, continually updating their knowledge base as information changes. These habits need to be carried onward from this point forward in any future endeavor regardless of the aviation related field they might end up. 6. The student will explore different teaching techniques necessary for becoming a professional flight instructor by developing skills through repeated presentations in class and in front of students. This is accomplished by creating lesson plans for the power curve and complex gear and prop systems ground schools that are taught to current students in the flight program. The flight instructor candidates will be critiqued on a number of areas further developing their teaching skills, improving their technique. 7. Flight instructor candidates will participate in classroom discussion on best practices for explaining aerodynamics in flight that will aid students mastering techniques of handling an aircraft. Additionally classroom discussion will evaluate candidate’s knowledge of weather theory and their ability to apply this theory to the feasibility of a flight through weather decision making using weather services.

Experiential Learning Course Objectives and Associated Assessments: 1. Students will be given opportunities to connect ideas, concepts and skills developed

throughout their undergraduate coursework in flight technology with their applications to new and different contexts.

a. Writing assignment on The Fred Factor. b. At the conclusion of the course the student will have to demonstrate their knowledge

needed to become a professional flight instructor through a series of review board quizzes. These nine quizzes will evaluate the student’s knowledge finding weak areas that will need to be addressed before the student graduates from the course.

c. Flight instructor candidates will participate in classroom discussion on best practices for explaining aerodynamics in flight that will aid students mastering techniques of handling an aircraft.

Student Activities/Projects: 1. Each student will develop and present two lessons (FAA format): one for a private and one for a commercial student are to be taught at the airport with your flight instructor supervising. Topics and completion dates in the syllabus. Resources are your flight instructor and several texts, which, must be listed in your lesson plan. Formal lesson plans, self-evaluation will be required in for all lessons taught. 2. Compose a twenty question multiple-choice quiz that should be capable of assessing student’s knowledge prior to their first solo cross-country flight. This test should be comprehensive to include all topics required for solo cross-country. Do not include knowledge that should be in the first solo quiz. Correct answers and your references shall be included with the paper. 3. A quiz covering each topic will be completed at the beginning of each class meeting. Quizzes will begin exactly at the beginning of class and one minute per question. No make up quizzes. 4. The students will read the book The Fred Factor thru out the semester. A three page paper will be written answering the following question: Why do you think this book was assigned? In what way will this assignment change your approach to being a professional in the field of aviation? Give an example of a Fred that you know or have met in the past, and explain why. This paper should be double spaced and written in APA format. Review Board and Review Board Quizzes are not used for the determining the grade for this class or the Flight Instructor flight course. These are used to qualify for the recommendation for the flight check and for the intern employment considerations. The review boards will be scheduled near the end of this class. Students with Disabilities: University policy 3342-3-01.3 requires that students with disabilities be provided reasonable accommodations to ensure their equal access to course content. If you have a documented disability and require accommodations, please contact the instructor at the beginning of the semester to make arrangements for necessary classroom adjustments. Please note, you must first verify your eligibility for these through Student Accessibility Services (contact 330-672-3391 or visit www.kent.edu/sas <http://www.registrars.kent.edu/disability/> for more information on registration procedures). Course Registration/Proper Enrollment: Students have responsibility to ensure they are properly enrolled in classes. You are advised to review your official class schedule (using Student Tools in FlashLine) during the first two weeks of the semester to ensure you are properly enrolled in this class and section. Should you find an error in your class schedule, you have until (date will be provided by the Undergraduate Office in advance) to correct the error with the advising office. If registration errors are not corrected by this date and you continue to attend and participate in classes for which you are not officially enrolled, you are advised now that your will not receive assignment grades or a course grade at the conclusion of the semester for any class in which you are not properly registered.

Withdrawal Deadline: For Fall and Spring semesters, the course withdrawal deadline is always the Sunday following the 10th week of the semester. For Intersession, the course withdrawal deadline is always the Sunday following the second week (of three total). For Summer I and III, the course withdrawal deadline is usually the Sunday following the second week (of five total). For Summer II, the course withdrawal deadline is usually the Sunday following the fourth week (of eight total). Failure to properly withdraw from a class may result in forfeiture of all course fees. Academic Honesty: It is expected that the student complete all of the assigned work alone except when otherwise assigned. If the submitted work is the result of a collaborative effort, names of all members and contributors must be included. If references are used, proper notation is expected (I prefer a paper full of notated references than one with plagiarized material). Cheating means to misrepresent the source, nature, or other conditions of your academic work (e.g., tests, papers, projects, assignments) so as to get underserved credit. The use of the intellectual property of others without giving them appropriate credit is a serious academic offense. It is the University’s policy that cheating or plagiarism result in receiving a failing grade (0 points) for the work or the course. Repeat offenses may result in dismissal from the University. The University's administrative policy and procedures regarding student cheating and plagiarism can be found in the University Policy Register, Chapter 3, Topic 7. By submitting any material in this course (or any other) you are certifying that it is free of plagiarism. If you would like more information on plagiarism, what it is, and how to avoid it, please visit the following sites: http://www.indiana.edu/~wts/pamphlets/plagiarism.shtml, http://sja.ucdavis.edu/avoid.htm. Notice of my copyright and intellectual property rights: Any intellectual property displayed or distributed to students during this course (including but not limited to powerpoints, notes, quizzes, examinations) by the professor / lecturer / instructor remains the intellectual property of the professor / lecturer / instructor. This means that the student may not distribute, publish or provide such intellectual property to any other person or entity for any reason, commercial or otherwise, without the express written permission of the professor / lecturer / instructor.

New Roman font, 11 or 12-point. The final report is due no later than 3:00p.m. on the Tuesday of Finals Week: May 6, 2014. Students will also complete a reflective essay. The reflective essay must be 2-3 standard pages; Times New Roman, 11 or 12-point font. The essay is an opportunity for the student to reflect on the meaning of their capstone experience for their current and future learning. Questions which should be answered in the reflective essay include (but are not limited to)

1. Which part of the process for course assignments did you put the most effort into? Which part of the process for course assignments do you wish you had spent more time on?

2. What was the *most* difficult part of this course? Were there topics/courses that were missing from your previous coursework which could have better prepared you for this class?

3. What was the biggest problem you encountered during this course? How successful were you in solving that problem? What tools did you use? What might you have done better if experiencing a similar situation in the future?

4. What did you learn about yourself as an aviation management major (or about aeronautical systems engineering technology in general) in the process of completing this course?

5. How does the completion of this course prepare you for future career opportunities? 6. How do you feel the ideas, concepts and skills developed throughout the course have prepared you

for new experiences in aeronautical systems engineering technology? 7. How do you feel this course has broadened your understanding of aeronautical systems engineering

technology, the world, or yourself as a learner? Homework is due on the Thursday of the following week after it is assigned. Grading system: Course graded requirements and their weights are presented in the following table. Homework is an individual effort, unless otherwise specified. Design reviews and project reports are group efforts; however, student grades will be assigned based upon an individual’s contribution to the overall effort.

D 66-69% F <65% Students with Disabilities: University policy 3342-3-01.3 requires that students with disabilities be provided reasonable accommodations to ensure their equal access to course content. If you have a documented disability and require accommodations, please contact the instructor at the beginning of the semester to make arrangements for necessary classroom adjustments. Please note, you must first verify your eligibility for these through Student Accessibility Services (phone 330-672-3391 or visit www.kent.edu/sas for more information on registration procedures). Course Registration/Proper Enrollment: Students have responsibility to ensure they are properly enrolled in classes. You are advised to review your official class schedule (using Student Tools in FlashLine) during the first two weeks of the semester to ensure you are properly enrolled in this class and section. Should you find an error in your class schedule, you have the first two weeks of the semester to correct the error with your advising office. If registration errors are not corrected by this date and you continue to attend and participate in classes for which you are not officially enrolled, you are advised now that your will not receive assignment grades or a course grade at the conclusion of the semester for any class in which you are not properly registered. Withdrawal Deadline: For Fall and Spring semesters, the course withdrawal deadline is always the Sunday following the 10th week of the semester. For Intersession, the course withdrawal deadline is always the Sunday following the second week (of three total). For Summer I and III, the course withdrawal deadline is usually the Sunday following the second week (of five total). For Summer II, the course withdrawal deadline is usually the Sunday following the fourth week (of eight total). Academic Honesty: It is expected that the student complete all of the assigned work alone except when otherwise assigned. If the submitted work is the result of a collaborative effort, names of all members and contributors must be included. If references are used, proper notation is expected (I prefer a paper full of notated references than one with plagiarized material). Cheating means to misrepresent the source, nature, or other conditions of your academic work (e.g., tests, papers, projects, assignments) so as to get underserved credit. The use of the intellectual property of others without giving them appropriate credit is a serious academic offense. It is the University’s policy that cheating or plagiarism result in receiving a failing grade (0 points) for the work or the course. Repeat offenses may result in dismissal from the University. The University's administrative policy andprocedures regarding student cheating and plagiarism can be found in the University Policy Register, Chapter 3, Topic 7. By submitting any material in this course (or any other) you are certifying that it is free of plagiarism.
