The aim is to cut down on explanation time during the normal course of driving lessons by providing the pupil with 'breifings' on a CD-Rom to prepare them for each new phase in their progress as a driver, as well as providing an invaluable reference source.
It differs from other training aids by using 'web browser' technology and graphics to offer the user a clear path through essential information with the option of more detail should they need it.
For example, a novice driver's first lesson should include an explanation of the controls which, if it is to be done properly, can take up to an hour depending on the pupil's prior knowledge. By using the 'Accelerator' the majority of this time can be spent on using the controls rather than talking about them.
We have already had a positive reaction to the first module, 'The Controls', from several of our pupils. Although it needs further refinement, it is available now, free of charge, without committing to lessons with us, to anyone within our area who has never driven before and we will be interested to know what you think of it. Either call or email us with your name, address, telephone and driving licence number and we will send you a copy!
