火車脫軌和災難

This one time class will explore four train accidents and what the railway industry field learned about these accidents that lead to better trains, rails and safety procedures. 

We will study 4 train accidents. Students will ride into the newest train technology, railway safety procedures, and how to continue best practices for the industry. We will look through train accident cases and discuss the events that led up to the accident, accident procedures during the accident and finishing up reports that lead to changes and better safety regulations. 

For this class, students will be encouraged to comment on peer activity postings at least once, as directed by the activity, throughout the course in order to to develop a sense of community in the class. There are interactive activities through Nearpod that allows students to truly be immersed in their learning.
		
By the end of the class, students will: 
Demonstrate understanding in transportation accidents.
Compare/contrast/synthesize and analyze information.
Exercise critical thinking and communication skills in formal and informal discussions.

While obtaining my Education degree, I took 29 upper graduate credits in the Aviation and Safety procedural field, as Aeronautics and accident prevention is a hobby of mine. These courses were take at Everglades University in their Aeronautical program. In these classes, they touched upon all accidents in transportation, including all modes of transportation. Trains, Automobiles, Aircrafts and Ships. 

This is a PG class, there is no violent images aside from wreck sites and these images have no violence. These are just facts and why investigations are important to the transportation field, as we learn and use what we have discovered to better technology.
