Instructors Corner Suggestion

This is a fantastic idea. But have you considered any way to also idenditfy and possably group by region? It would be great to see a state or region following their names in the title. If I develop a connection by reading a particular Instructor and then find out he/she is in California, it may not as helpful as developing a connection with one resonably near me.

Just the way my old twisted brain works.

Thanks for this site and evrything you are doing with it!!

What visual aids do you teach with?

I've been teaching CCDW in Kentucky since the law passed in 1996 (thanks to the NRA and KC3!).

I find the following NRA laminated posters to be great teaching tools:
- 3 Rules of Firearm Safety
- Semi-Auto vs. Revolver (diagram)
- Ammunition Components (diagram)

These are directly related to some of the chapters I have to cover in our mandatory 8-hour class. They are not required by my state, but I find them to be much better than the small diagrams in the "official" student workbook.

What other posters or handouts do you use in your classes?

groupings

power point

If you don't know the NRA Lesson plans for basic pistol have an awesome presentation that follows the outline. No need for posters any more. The only thing I have found questionable is they made all the slides with a bold red border that screams "danger". I asked the staff about it and they said red was the color of all the basic pistol materials. I just feel the slides have too much red border. Every class on Powerpoint I have been to told us to limit the hot colors like red. It is still good with pictures and graphics to explain the fundamentals of pistol shooting.

There is a great power point download in the NRA instuctor section that gives a great chapter by chapter slide presentation.

This site just jumped to the "head of the class" on my list of sites to check daily!
Fantastic idea Luke!

Wonderful idea.

 

[Budreaux39]

I Like it a lot! It looks to me that most everyone has their state/location attached to post via their profile, and those that don't can easily add it.
Good job Luke, I'm in
