DE Classroom suggestions

[jakp993]

Gang,

I'm in the process of creating the classroom materials for the upcoming season and I'd like to get your feedback on the type of information you would find valuable as students. 

Let me tell you where I am so far.

Classroom 1:  Morning of first day (first time Green students)[indent]General paddock procedures
Basic Terminology
Communication techniques
Passing procedures
Proper driving position
Basic Skid / Spin control
Etiquette
[/indent]Classroom 2:  Afternoon of first day (Green & Blue students)[indent]Vision - the importance of looking ahead
Cornering basics, the proper & improper line
Types of corners
Braking & shifting
Advanced traction topics
Car prep & safety equipment
[/indent]Classroom 3:  Morning of second day (Green & Blue students)[indent]Anatomy of the track
Corner by corner discussion of track - including video analysis
[/indent]The club has approved the purchase of a projector so I've been able to update the classroom technology significantly including the use of powerpoint animations, in car video playback, and data acquisition displays.

I've tried to address many of the classroom oriented suggestions offered in the "Lessons from other regions" thread. 

In addition to the above, Larry Herman will continue with White classroom sessions over the lunch hour.

What else have you seen be effective in other classroom programs?

Take care,
Jack
