Use of Video Technology in Bus Maintenance

摘要

Use of video technology as an effective training tool is rapidly increasing. The research determines the video technology available in bus maintenance, evaluates its effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, and examines its future application as a training tool. The report begins with a discussion of the problems associated with changes in the training process and the design, organization and evaluation of training programs. Chapter 3 looks into the problems and solutions of bus maintenance programs in the transit industry. Chapter 4 discusses a wide-range of training technologies such as TV Networking, Computer-Assisted Instructions, Optical Videodisc Systems and others. Chapter 5 provides a two-phased approach for evaluating and assessing video technology, and Chapter 6 discusses the cost-effectiveness of new training technologies. The final Chapter 7 looks at the future of video technology and its integration with expert systems. The research concludes that video technology is a cost-effective training technique whose use is rapidly expanding. A list of Video Vendors, the results of the Ford Study, and a List of References are provided.
