For immediate release
NOVI, Mich. – May 15, 2005 -- Mastery Technologies, Inc., a leader in workplace health and safety training technology, today announced the latest release in its Web and CD-ROM Mastery Advantage™ series, “Defensive Driving: Step Vans”. This course teaches the learner about the unique handling skills needed to safely operate a step van. Lessons covers the factors that cause accidents and then provide seven strategies for driving defensively. Twenty-eight interactions actively involve the learner in the training. Lesson interactions provide the learner opportunities to apply what he or she has learned. The computer assesses the learner’s level of understanding of all learning objectives. When the learner answers a question incorrectly the computer provides remedial instruction and reviews the material until the learner can answer correctly. All questions in this course are fully narrated. Narrations enhance comprehension and are welcome support for learners with reading skill deficits and when English is the learner’s second language.
Mastery’s exclusive Follow-up Review, standard in all Mastery Advantage courses, provides time-delayed reinforcement and review of learners’ newly acquired knowledge, enhancing the transfer of that knowledge to their long-term memory. Course resources include a fully narrated glossary of terms in which each term is pronounced and defined aloud. A topical index provides a complete map to instructional material so users can access all course information at any time during the lesson. A complete transcript of all audio and video files is also provided, which can be used to simplify customizations. Closed Captioning is included as well.
