Aerospace Content Order in the Cadet Curriculum

The current cadet curriculum has each cadet engage with aerospace content for 13 of the 16 achievements and allows for significant flexibility in the selection of modules, giving cadets the autonomy to choose the order in which they complete them. However, the anticipated benefits of this flexibility have not been realized as frequently as expected. The impending transition to a new Learning Management System (LMS) in 2024 offers an opportune moment to reassess the cadet user experience, especially considering the recent additions of Cadet Interactive, honor credit, and test banking.  This paper delves into the intricate dynamics of the cadet experience, technological concerns, and data analysis to propose a solution aimed at streamlining the aerospace curriculum for a more effective and user-friendly experience. Please see the attached paper that advocates for a shift towards a sequenced aerospace cadet curriculum, like the leadership curriculum, to enhance the user experience and streamline the learning process.
