TRAINING MATERIAL DEVELOPMENT FOR THE DART (DATA ANALYSIS AND REPORTING TECHNIQUES) SYSTEM

The purpose of the study was to develop, pilot test, and document a training program for the DART (Data Analysis and Reporting Techniques) system. DART is a computer system designed to aid states in identifying their own highway safety problems through analysis of their own accident data. The resultant training program consists of 15 units of instruction and requires 4-1/2 days of training time. The course emphasizes the practical aspects of working with the DART system tools. Approximately one-half of total training time is devoted to trainee practice. The training package consists of an Instructor Manual prepared to assist the instructor in the day-to-day conduct of each course lesson, a Trainee Manual prepared to serve as a resource document for individuals attending the DART training course, and a set of 50 illustrations (transparencies to be used with the overhead projector) prepared to assist instructor and trainee in achieving lesson and course objectives.
