Gleim Fundamentals of Instructing FAA Knowledge Test for 2011

by Irvin N. Gleim

The primary purpose of Fundamentals of Instructing FAA Knowledge Test is to provide you with the easiest, fastest, and least expensive means of passing the Fundamentals of Instructing (FOI) knowledge test, which is required before you can obtain your flight and/or ground instructor certificate. You are not required to take the FOI knowledge test if you hold an FAA flight or ground instructor certificate, a current teacher's certificate authorizing you to teach at an educational level of the 7th grade or higher, or are currently employed as a teacher at an accredited college or university. Appendix B of this book is a reprint of "Section Two -- The Flight Instructor" from the FAA's Aviation Instructor's Handbook (FAA-H-8083-9). It is useful for reading and as a periodic review for instructors. It consists of three chapters: 1) Instructor Responsibilities and Professionalism; 2) Techniques of Flight Instruction, 3) Planning Instructional Activity. Appendix C of this book consists of suggestions on how to find or become a sponsor for a "ground school." It also contains suggestions on course organizations, lecture outlines, and class presentations. Each Gleim knowledge test book contains a practice FAA knowledge test. Once you feel confident in your grasp of the concepts presented, test yourself and be sure. You'll be more than ready when you sit down to take your actual FAA knowledge test!
