Usenet has pretty much become an anarchic wasteland. Nothing new about that...

Aren't lesson plans fun? Don't take them lightly. You will learn a lot,
not only about aviation, but about teaching and about yourself as a teacher. The time spent developing your own set of lesson plans is time very well spent. Jim |

Right now I'm taking a break from writing CFI lesson plans, and all over my desk I have the sources I've been using and referencing: 1. Aviation Instructor's Handbook, FAA-8083-9 2. Airplane Flying Handbook, FAA-8083-3A 3. ASA CFI Test Prep 4. 2008 FAR/AIM 5. Sporty's Training Course Outline 6. "The Flight Instructor's Manual" by William Kershner and 7.

The time spent developing your own set of lesson plans is time very well spent. Jim I made my own template based on the FOI examples and referred to the Sporty's training course plans for sequencing. I'd rather use a documented structure than have my first students be guinea pigs to my own ideas about how to teach. Modified the Sporty's sequencing quite a bit to cover the special emphasis areas and because the FBO I'll be working out of is at a towered airport underlying a Class C shelf. A student starting there will need to know about radio communications, towered airport operations and airspace rules much earlier than somebody flying out of a rural untowered airport. I referred to Kershner and Gardner for individual lessons on maneuvers, radio communications, etc. which is what I'm finishing up now. It seems a little tedious at first but once the template is done it goes pretty fast. Reseaching concepts, organizing bullet points and visuals, and finding ways of explaining things has been -much- more beneficial than sitting in a ground school lecture or plodding through a textbook. -c Went up with Steven (NWPilot) in his C-150 last Saturday and did "falling leaf" stalls. That was a blast. |

I "mark all read", without reading anything, much more than I would like to. 99% of the messages are two feuding pedantics and one simmer with issues. I am skipping over quite a few posts myself - but I'm afraid I have helped contribute to the noise problem by responding to a few of the feuding parties. The sad part is that I *like* unmoderated forums, and prefer newsreaders over web forums. Many web forums use software that is such a pain to follow, I never go back more than a few times. Agreed on the web forum software - most of the sites in question use the same software, alas. Its mechanism for threading makes browsing multiple threads painful. |

Not a flight instructor, but I will say that I learn a lot more standing in front of a classroom than I would have as a student...
