From Kevin Kelly’s wonderful Cool Tools newsletter:
“This old-school government manual for flight instructors is the best how-to guide I have come across for teaching, learning, communication and professionalism about any subject. It says almost nothing about aviation, and everything about how to teach. It’s called “The Aviation Instructor’s Handbook”; the full text is available for free as a PDF download.
– Ronald Fuller
It’s really pretty good. Covers all kinds of pedagogical approaches, and is especially good for teaching material where both head and body skills are needed. Think of it as a general “Instructor’s Handbook.” Short of signing up for a teacher’s degree, I haven’t seen anything else as thorough, explicit, and succinct in how to teach teaching.”
