Paper Session I-B - Interactive Courseware Development at the Kennedy Space Center

The need to train Space Shuttle System Engineers to mastery levels in Shuttle system operating components, component interfaces and operating parameters had been determined by a series of needs assessments. The needs assessments concluded that the training needs of the system engineering population could best be met by a multimedia presentation of system operating characteristics.
