Learning Effects of Aviation Cabin Service Practice by Applying the PBL Teaching Model: For Aviation Service Departments

This study applied the problem-based learning (PBL) teaching model to the aviation cabin service practical course offered in the Department of Aviation Service to train airline cabin crew and analyzed its learning effects. For this purpose, the PBL teaching model was applied to 61 students in the Department of Aviation Service in Jeollanam-do for a total of 12 weeks out of 15 weeks of class for 3 credits in the aviation cabin service practical course. The application of the PBL teaching model was conducted in a total of two modules based on the National Competency Standards (NCS). In the self-evaluation of participation in airline cabin service practical classes using the PBL teaching model, learners faithfully presented the learning outcomes of problem-solving activities. In the self-evaluation of the training results, the learners said that they learned a lot about communication problems during team activities and that the overall class activities were helpful in terms of training satisfaction. Through the application of the PBL teaching model, students faithfully presented the learning results of problem-solving activities, became aware of many communication problem situations during team activities, and found that overall class activities were helpful.
