For the past few days, I have been typing away on ideas to improve curriculum of academic UAS settings. I have divided my ideas into 5 different categories of topics that I feel are usually missing from many UAS academia settings. Below I have very brief descriptions under the 5 main ideas I have for now. I have a much more detailed writing saved, but I shortened it to keep it to the point.
5 Topics Brief
Flight Crew Management & “Smart” Flight Operations (minimize costs and increase safety)
Formal Delegation of Flight Crew Roles,
Minimizing Costs of operations,
Safety Management System(SMS) visual aid for each mission
Application of UAVs in real world situations for proper solutions
Capstone Projects that address real world solutions
Individual and Group Collaboration on projects
Understanding of Laws, Regulations, and Ethics
Regular Discussion of Ethics vs. Laws/Regulations (just because it's legal does not make it ethical)
Ethics needs to be brought up more in the classroom
Metadata Standards & Streamlining Payloads
Streamlining workflows saves time and money
Standardization of Metadata to make collecting data easier
Supplementary Skills (Knowledge of Software Programs
Knowledge of GIS software
Knowledge of a coding language
Ability to create apps
Utilizing Online Logbooks
Next Week:
I will continue to expand on the suggestions that I made above as I continue on with the journal article.
