Compass swing practical training in Aircraft Maintenance Training Organizations is often constrained by limited access to training aircraft and maneuvering areas. This study designed and functionally demonstrated a portable miniature compass swing trainer produced by fused deposition modeling with a predominantly polylactic acid structure. Mounted on a tripod, the trainer supported controlled rotation and leveling. A single instructional run reproduced correcting-swing and checking-swing procedures and yielded illustrative Make Compass Read outputs (C = -2°, B = +6°, A = -2.67°) together with data for a training Compass Deviation Card. Six subject-matter instructors, purposively selected from 17 AMTO instructors, provided structured feedback (mean = 4.75 ± 0.34; 71 of 72 item-level responses were agree or strongly agree). The prototype is intended as a hands-on procedural and mathematical trainer, not a metrological calibration tool or electromagnetic replica. The findings support preliminary instructional functionality and expert acceptance but do not establish measurement accuracy, repeatability, full-scale equivalence, or student-learning effectiveness.
The study did not include learners with visual impairment, Braille teachers, rehabilitation specialists, or other end users, and it did not collect quantitative measures of accuracy across the full character set, writing speed, embossing quality, latency, durability, safety, and user satisfaction.

Manual stirrup fabrication remains common in small construction projects, training workshops, and locations where powered rebar-bending equipment is unavailable or impractical. Improvised bending methods, however, can demand substantial physical effort and produce inconsistent results. This study developed and evaluate...

Effective training systems must be designed to support not only the mastery of trained skills, but also retention, especially in high consequence industries. As trainee time is finite, it is critical to optimize parameters of frequency, spacing, and content facilitation to enable efficiently retaining skills. These c...
