DELMAR AUTOMOTIVE TRAINING ONLINE ? DIAGNOSTIC SCENARIOS is a groundbreaking online training program that creates a rich-media learning experience for students by challenging them to learn approved diagnostic and repair practices in 62 realistic scenarios that span all systems areas. By combining strong pedagogy along with real-world experiences, students will improve critical thinking and problem-solving skills through this interactive program. Each scenario addresses a simulated problem on a specific vehicle and teaches students to use an 8-step diagnostic process leading to a successful repair while coaching them with tips. DATO puts students in the role of technicians employed by "All Tech Automotive." It employs Flash animations, a wide variety of interactive features and live-action video to create a simulated but realistic modern repair facility. Students use available tools and diagnostic equipment, animated instrument panels, and service information to diagnose and repair vehicles. This is same approach used by manufacturers to train their own technicians that has been adapted to the needs and expectations of student learners. DATO challenges students to solve real problems on real vehicles from Ford, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda and Hyundai. DATO minimizes on-screen reading and maximizes student engagement by requiring students to prove that they've done the critical thinking and problem-solving involved in problem diagnosis.
