Crash Reduction

The purpose of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety outline project was to initiate program development which could lead to “reinventing” a more intensive, comprehensive, and effective driver education system, which could lead to crash reduction in novice drivers. The project reviewed knowledge in a number of areas — driver education effectiveness, novice drivers' needs, and methods of instruction and behavioral influence. The traditional education model used for driver education is inadequate, and fundamental changes in content, methods, and organization are needed. New developments and synergies among education methods, training technologies, organizational change, and demand for quality promise a new and more effective role for driver education in the 21st Century.

The model of community education in the form of the prophet Muhammad is community education modeled on the ways of education carried out by the prophet Muhammad SAW. Among the models of the prophet Muhammad SAW education. namely the development of Islamic education, curriculum, materials, methods, institutions, guidance during the time of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. Alternative solutions for social life in Indonesia include Indonesian education that must be designed in such a way as to enable students to develop their potential naturally and creatively in an atmosphere of freedom, togetherness, and responsibility. In addition, education must produce graduates who can understand their community with all the factors that can support success or obstacles that cause failure in social life. One alternative that can be done is to develop an education model of the Prophet Muhammad SAW.

Younger adults are overinvolved in accidents. Model high school driver education programs were developed in the 1970s in an attempt to reduce this overinvolvement. An evaluation of these programs suggested that they were largely ineffective. Recently, the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety has developed the first PC-based driver education program (Zero Errors Driving or Driver ZED) using real footage of risky scenarios. The hope is that younger drivers seeing these scenarios will learn to recognize risky situations in the real world before they develop. In an attempt to evaluate the Driver ZED program, the performance of 20 younger drivers is being tested on the University of Massachusetts' driving simulator. Ten of these drivers have been trained with ZED (the trained group) and ten have not seen the program (the untrained group). All 20 drivers must navigate a total of 24 scenarios that have been programmed on the driving simulator. Measures of driving performance were developed which can be used to discriminate between risky and nonrisky drivers. A preliminary evaluation of the performance of the trained and untrained subjects indicates that the trained subjects are performing more cautiously than the untrained subjects in some, but not all, scenarios (e.g., the trained subjects brake sooner when approaching a pedestrian crossing).

Crash Injury Severity

This study intended to investigate the crash injury severity from the insights of the novice and experienced drivers. To achieve this objective, a bivariate panel data probit model was initially proposed to account for the correlation between both time-specific and individual-specific error terms. The geocrash data of Las Vegas metropolitan area from 2014 to 2017 were collected. In order to estimate two (seemingly unrelated) nonlinear processes and to control for interrelations between the unobservables, the bivariate random-effects probit model was built up, in which injury severity levels of novice and experienced drivers were addressed by bivariate (seemingly unrelated) probit simultaneously, and the interrelations between the unobservables (i.e., heterogeneity issue) were accommodated by bivariate random-effects model. Results revealed that crash types, vehicle types of minor responsibility, pedestrians, and motorcyclists were potentially significant factors of injury severity for novice drivers, while crash types, driver condition of minor responsibility, first harm, and highway factor were significant for experienced drivers. The findings provide useful insights for practitioners to improve traffic safety levels of novice and experienced drivers.

The present research investigated the contribution of Geoscience Education in environment studies developed at Escola de Aplicação EA/FEUSP, São Paulo. The research focused on teacher training to overcome the traditional education model based on a fragmentation of knowledge, thus contributing to curriculum integration. Environment studies, field notebooks and the relationship of educational methodology and geosciences knowledge in the school’s curriculum were analyzed. The approaches carried out in the 3rd, 4th and 5th grades of elementary school contributed to reorganizing the Science curriculum, including a geoscientific approach. The results showed the importance of geoscience education and the possibility of changes in the curriculum in promoting a more contextualized and integrated education, starting from the basic levels, to meet the school’s pedagogical policy plan.

On The Road

Road traffic fatality is rated as one of the ten causes of death in the world and with various preventive measures on a global level, this prediction is only placed on flat terrain and didn’t reduce. Nevertheless, road users’ communication is an essential key to traffic safety. This communication, be it formal or informal between the road users is an important factor for smooth traffic flow and safety. Communication language on roads can be categorized into; formal device-based signal (formal signal), formal hand signal (formal signal), informal device-based signal (informal signal), and informal gesture-based signal (everyday signal). However, if the intent of the message conveys is not properly understood by the other road user, mistakes and errors may set in. Overall, the formal signal is based on explicit learning which occurs during the driving training and the license testing process and the informal, implicit learning occur during the actual driving process on the road unintentionally. Furthermore, since the informal signal is not a prerequisite to driving or taught in driving schools, novice drivers are clueless and thus, might have contributed to errors and mistakes which leads to traffic fatalities. Therefore, this study seeks to document the informal means of communication between drivers on South African roads. Consequently, a qualitative semi-structured interview questionnaire would be used in the collection of informal signals, which were predominantly used on South African roads from driving instructors and thereafter, a focus group of passengers’ car, commercial and truck drivers will be used to validate the availability and their understanding of these informal signals using a Likert-type scale for the confidence level. In conclusion, the information gathered from this study will help improve road safety and understanding of road users especially drivers on the necessity of communication and possible adaptation for other developing countries.

In recent years, the rate of access to higher education has increased dramatically in Turkey. Although this case provides many advantages in the medium and long term, it is also a source of a significant problem. This problem is ”over education“ problem. This study addresses the over education problem in the dimension of education and particularly in the context of higher education curricula. As a result of the documentary analysis, we argue that Turkey can alleviate over education problem by adopting a market-oriented higher education model.

Different Levels

With the continuous development of computer network and the popularity of internet applications, technology is constantly changing the traditional education model. The rise of the MOOC has set off a worldwide revolution in educational technology, which has been widely welcomed by university teachers and students. On the platforms of MOOC, the learning behaviours of college students have generated massive amounts of relevant data. Teachers can tap learning behaviours, master different types of learning styles to better control the learning steps and urge college students to better participate in all aspects of learning. Based on the MOOC platform, this paper classifies the students into excellent learners, middle learners, poor learners and non-learners by cluster analysis to teach students of different levels in different ways to optimize the MOOC teaching effect.
