Increase AMT student engagement with Avotek-Online’s new online course

/in , ,

Avotek-Online has released a new online course to cover the Aircraft Water and Waste Systems material now required by the ACS. This course complements Avotek’s recently released Aircraft Water and Waste Systems booklet and is the first offering in a group of courses that go in the Aircraft System Maintenance category/series on our Avotek-Online page.

This online experience is an excellent way to increase student engagement and learning by having students complete the theory portion of the subject area at home but have their questions answered and work on the skills and problem solving during in-person class time. Often referred to as “flipping the classroom,” this technique can be a very effective way to present AMT material.
