TPI Workshop Moscow: May 25 - 26, 2017 Education in traffic safety – driver training and testing Jan Vissers

GDE-matrix and driving competence Overview GDE-matrix and changed view on driving Competence based assessment in training and testing Changed role of driving instructors

Casualty studies Lack of higher order skills: Being able to observe relevant information within traffic (situation awareness) Concentration on potentially dangerous aspects of the traffic environment (risk awareness Adapt their actions to their level of profieciency (self-evaluation skills, calibration)

Changed view on driving Driving increasingly considered as a domain of competence A stepping stone: GDE-matrix Further elaboration needed for training and testing Future training and testing Traditional training and testing

Cube of driving competence Safe Social Criteria Flow Eco Comfort Competence Task level Empathize Live-work-travel Know- understand Neglected part: social-emotional competence Plan - navigate Decide - act Participate Vehicle handling Self-regulate

Balancing capability and task requirements Lucky escape Performance capability (C) Task requirements (T) Others compensating Loss of control Collision Performance capability (C) Task requirements (T) In control

Why overall assessment? Scoring faults not consistent with more holistic approach of GDE-matrix Scoring faults is looking for accidental wrong driving behavior Scoring faults might fit well with testing of basic technical skills, but nor suitable for testing higher order skills Test should also look for positive evidence All important competences should be assessed

Competence based assessment Assessment evidence should be documented in a systematic way (not only negative points, but firstly focus on positive points) No single failure faults any more Assessment of examiner is made more transparent Reliability of driving test will be improved Better communication with test candidates and driving coaches will be achieved

Aligment of assessments in training and testing Formative assessment in training should be aligned with summative assessment during the driving test Learner driver completes self-assessments Self-assessment will be explicitly compared with assessment of driving coach and examiner Formative assessments and self-assessments documented in driver portfolio

Increasing complexity, decreasing support Increasing complexity of driving tasks Calm surroundings Complex tasks Very complex and demanding tasks Simple tasks Decreasing support by instructor Increasing task complexity for learner driver End Module 1 End Module 2 End Module 3 End module 4
