Development of a model for training transport workers to function in non-standard situations

Abstract

The article presents a model for preparing and collecting information needed in the transport workers training to function in non-standard situations. Such situations are characterized by new, unknown information and working conditions. The complexity of training specialists for such work lies in the selection of initial data that should not be contained in the existing experience of a trainee. The existing approaches to training specialists are limited to developing skills of actions according to instructions and ready-made algorithm. However, under the influence of unexpected, unknown factors, the learned order of actions can be disrupted due to the influence of the specific types of the trainee’s response to the stressor. Such reactions result in mistakes in actions, slow reactions or, conversely, in hasty actions. The basis for building a training model is a system for training flight crews and special personnel involved in work under difficult and dangerous conditions. The proposed model allows one to identify the experience of the student before the learning process starts, prepare the student and choose an individual route to complete the training tasks formed according to a constantly growing list of training situations. The complexity of selecting educational situations is caused by the peculiarity of the work of specialist groups, interpersonal relationships and other factors that may hinder the perception of educational situations as new and unfamiliar. The created model makes it possible to simplify the collection of information about the existing experience of a student and select the necessary tasks. The result of working with the training model should be considered the expansion of the trainee’s operational field of attention and the development of experience in the constructive response under situations characterized as non-standard.
