Course Description
Course Goals
Learning Outcomes
2. Appraise the concept of training systems, their components, and the revolving training
cycle.
5. Apply the concept of "Transfer of Training" (TOT) to an aviation and aerospace training
program.
6. Analyze the activities that are involved in planning, conducting, and interpreting the data
for a TOT evaluation of an aviation simulator, including instructional support features.
7. Evaluate current regulation guidance in aircraft simulation. Focusing on FAA and DOD
fidelity requirements and the simulator certification and acceptance process.
9. Develop a formal written research paper using a typical functional problem area
involving aviation simulation systems prepared in current American Psychological
Association (APA) format.

Grading
These are the major assignments in the course and will be the basis for evaluation according to
the grading scale shown in the table below.
Total 100%
These are the major assignments, their respective weights, and grade scale.
Additional Information
The Final Exam (FE) discussed in Module 9 focuses on Modules 1 through 9. The FE is worth
30% of your grade. The exam will cover material from the weekly assignments, and forum
discussions. It will be comprised of essay identification and essay type questions. You will be
given 2 hours to complete the examination.
The Simulation Research Paper (SRP) is the main emphasis and cognitive direction for the
student learning in this course; indeed, the work constitutes 40% of your overall grade. The
topic must be approved by the designated instructor. The SRP must be written and formatted in
accordance with APA style guidelines. The SRP is due at the end of Week 8 and constitutes
40% of the course grade.
The Simulation Research Abstract is to be completed during the first two weeks is designed
for the student to research and request the topic and problem for the final paper or the SRP.
This paper constitutes 5% of your grade.
Discussion/Participation

actively exchange scholarly ideas in a thoughtful and professional manner, as expected of
Embry-Riddle students. Timely participation is highly encouraged. A new Discussion Board
topic begins on the 1st day of each week. As an analogy I use the opening of a new Discussion
Board topic as opening up the class room and the discussion. If a student waits until the last
day of the Discussion Board to enter their comments and opinions, most of the students are
leaving and will miss the late participant. This last minute participation denies other students
the benefits of the inputs the late student may provide. So participate early, visit the Discussion
board regularly and do not wait until the last day to participate. Participation is worth 25% of
your grade.

ASCI_515_syllabus_03/15
suspension or dismissal from the University, upon students who commit the following academic
violations:
1. Plagiarism: Presenting the ideas, words, or products of another as one’s own. Plagiarism
includes use of any source to complete academic assignments without proper
acknowledgement of the source. Reuse or resubmission of a student’s own coursework if
previously used or submitted in another course, is considered self-plagiarism, and is also
not allowed under University policy.
2. Cheating: A broad term that includes, but is not limited to, the following:
a. Giving or receiving help from unauthorized persons or materials during examinations.
b. The unauthorized communication of examination questions prior to, during, or
following administration of the examination.
c. Collaboration on examinations or assignments expected to be, or presented as,
individual work.
d. Fraud and deceit, that include knowingly furnishing false or misleading information or
failing to furnish appropriate information when requested, such as when applying for
admission to the University.
Note: The Instructor reserves the right to use any form of digital method for checking
plagiarism. Several electronic systems are available and other methods may be used at the
Instructor’s discretion.
Online Learning
This course is offered through Embry-Riddle Online (Canvas) and runs nine (9) weeks. The first
week begins the first day of the term and ends at midnight EDT/EST (as applicable) seven days
later. Success in this course requires in-depth study of each module as assigned, timely
completion of assignments, and regular participation in forum discussions.
Late work should be the exception and not the rule and may be downgraded at the discretion of
the Instructor, if accepted at all. Unless all work is submitted, the student could receive a failing
grade for the course. Extensions may be granted for extenuating circumstances at the discretion
of the Instructor and only for the length of time the Instructor deems appropriate. The most
important element of success in an online course is to communicate with your Instructor
throughout the term.
Conventions of “online etiquette,” which include courtesy to all users, will be observed. Students
should use the Send Email function in Canvas for private messages to the Instructor and other
students. The class Discussion Board forums are for public messages.
It is highly recommended that students keep electronic copies of all materials submitted as
assignments, discussion board posts and emails, until after the end of the term and a final grade
is received. When posting responses in a discussion forum, please confirm that the responses
have actually been posted after you submit them.
