Abstract:

Means were devised for improving and standardizing the study practices of Naval air trainees. A manual, Successful Study Methods, together with a Plan for Implementing the Manual were developed to meet the described needs. The manual contains only material that has been demonstrated by research to contribute to superior learning, described at a language level calculated not to present equivocal meanings to even the lowest level trainee. It incorporates a specific and observable study technique that is widely applicable and at the same time produces in the form of study notes a means whereby the students proper conformance to the method can be readily ascertained. The method and manual are of such simplicity as to demand minimal time both for the indoctrination of students in their use and the indoctrination of instructors and duty officers in their installation and supervision.
