Activities
Airport/Airfield Site Visit

You will be required to visit a certificated airport and conduct a tour and Airport Safety Self-
Inspection, which will be used to complete assignments in subsequent modules. Throughout
the course, you will be asked to report on the following functional areas: Airport Certification,
Airport Emergency Plan, Airport Rescue Firefighting, Airport Self Inspections, Runway Safety,
Airport Winter Operations, Wildlife Management, Airport Construction Operations, and Airport
Environmental Factors. Please ensure you review all assignments prior to conducting your
tour, to ensure you are covering all of the aforementioned functional areas. It is
recommended that you bring a copy of the Syllabus on the tour, along with photo ID and a
camera.
In some cases, where you are unable to visit a certificated airport, your faculty may approve
visiting a non-139 airport, airfield, military airfield, foreign airport, aircraft carrier, or heliport
when available, or may assist in evaluating a simulated airport. The same criteria will be
applied as though evaluating a certificated airport.
Each functional area will be reported and discussed throughout the applicable module
(Modules 1-9). Findings and Recommendations will be graded for reasonableness, given the
circumstances at the selected airport. When data cannot be obtained on any particular
functional area (e.g., winter operations at Honolulu Airport), you may refer to written
references, telephone interviews, airport studies, or defer to the Instructor for guidance. The
majority of your grade will depend upon your analysis, interpretation, and recommendations.
The superior report will include figures, tables, and photographs when possible, that clearly
describe the situation. Your report should use proper English and grammar.
Discussions and Assignments

Modules 1-9 contain discussion activities or questions that will help sharpen your critical
thinking and written communication skills as you study Airport Safety and Certification.
Twenty percent of your course grade will come from your responses to these discussions,
submitted on time and as directed in the appropriate Discussion forum. A portion of the grade
will come from responses to your peers. Keep in mind, peer responses entail more than “I
agree” or “Well done.”
The Discussion Rubric will be used to evaluate your posts in each graded activity throughout
the course. Discussion forum responses must, at a minimum, contain references for work
posted.
Additional rubrics for specific assignments (Airport Emergency Plan Activity, ARFF Activity,
Self Inspection Activity, Wildlife Activity, and Environmental Activity) are located in Resources,
Course Specific Resources folder, and will be used to grade your submissions. All submitted
assignments must be written per the current American Psychological Association (APA) style
guide.
APA Format
ERAU graduate papers are to be prepared in accordance with current Publication Manual of
the American Psychological Association style requirements. Refer to
http://www.apastyle.org/ for help citing references used in your discussion posts and in
formatting your assignment papers/reports.
Grading
All assignments are worth a score of 100; each discussion activity is worth a score of 10. Your
final grade will be based on the following evaluation items and weights:
Course Grade Scale Evaluation Items & Weights
90 – 100% A Airport Emergency Plan Activity (Module 2) 20%
