VEHICLE EXTRICATION STUDY HELPER
The extrication of human beings from the vehicles they drive can pose some of the biggest challenges a
firefighter can encounter in his/her career. The need for well trained rescuers knows no boundaries with
such incidents occurring from the largest cities to the smallest towns. The way you and your crew perform in
the Hot Zone can determine whether someone lives or whether someone dies. You must be prepared to be
able to make quick, thoughtful decisions that will allow you to mediate any extrication incident with skill and
speed. Vehicle Extrication Study Helper Version 1.0 helps firefighters, EMTs, Paramedics, and Police Officers
prepare for such challenges. Every Firehouse, and EMS facility should have a copy of this program.

The Questions

There are 600 questions in the registered software package spanning 10 chapters.  Plus a Terminology section containing 112 pertinent
definitions from the IFSTA text.

Features

1) Page References to IFSTA's Principles of Vehicle Extrication 2nd Edition for easy look up of questions. Space on the notes pages to
add your own comments, hints, or notes to questions.

2)
The ability to search the database for key words. Example - Search for Stabilizers - Returns all the questions which contain the words
Stabilizers.

3)
Keeps track of your progress three ways. Aerial Apparatus Study Helper has three ways to track your mistakes.

    A) In one module you can list questions that you incorrectly answered in the past. Once you answer the question correctly it clears
         that question from it's memory.

    B) The Elephant Memory never forgets your incorrectly answered questions until you clear the memory yourself. This allows you to
         drill on difficult questions. Once you have mastered these questions you can clear the elephant memory.

    C) The third method allows you to take an on-screen test and print out the test results. The results will display all the questions
          with the answers. Incorrectly answered questions are also displayed showing the correct answer and the answer you selected.
          You can then print out these results or save the results to a file to open and review later.

4)
Save your last session. With a click of the mouse you can return to your previous session to continue taking a test.

5)
Wizards that build test packages. With our easy-to-use test package wizard you can create tests, which can build test packages that
contain questions, answer sheets, and answer sheet correction keys. These packages can then be saved to disk and opened at a later
time to be printed out. They can also be sent over the Internet and opened by another computer.  Save or Print Out
Results Of Your Test. Records which questions were answered correctly, incorrectly or not at all. Also includes the user's name and
address and the starting and stopping times.

6)
The ability to create random tests 3 ways. You can create a random test from a single chapter, multiple chapters or the entire test bank
can be randomized. We allow you to choose which chapters you wish to include in your test as well as the number of questions you would
like asked in the test. The test can then be taken on screen or printed out, complete with answer sheets and answer sheet correction
keys.  Aerial Apparatus Study Helper gives you the ability to print out tests in a variety of ways.

7)
Answer Questions On Screen In A Variety of Ways. See the correct answer when you click on an answer option, or wait until you have
finished taking the test to see your results. Fly through tests using Turbo Answer, or just take your time and really learn the material.
You can choose between 4 answering modes.

8)
Vehicle Extrication Terminology - Easily look up terminology using our reference section. (Internet Version has a limited number of
definitions) Print out the entire glossary and hand it out to students, or create printed terminology quizzes; either by straight definition or
"Jeopardy" style.

9)
Highlight And Search Feature - The Highlight And Search Feature lets you highlight selected words or phrases within our question
database, then click on the library button on the toolbar, and Vehicle Extrication Study Helper will take you to our "Terminology Section"
where it will display the definition for the word. If the highlighted word is not found in the Terminology Section it will prompt you to add it
to the library, if you would like. It is a fast, easy way to look up Vehicle Extrication terminology while in the process of taking a test
on-screen.

10)
Create Flashcards You Can Print Out - Aerial Apparatus Study Helper lets you print out flashcards, so you can continue to study when
you are away from your computer. Select any test, or create a custom test, then print out flashcards. Save the flashcard file and print
them later on another computer.

Graphically See Your Improvement - Aerial Apparatus Study Helper comes with a handy-dandy graphing tool that can keep track of
your last 10 test results. Simply select your name from the list box on the "Notes Palette", and click "SAVE RESULTS." Your score will be
saved for the test you just completed.

12)
Auto-Numbering Of Questions - If you would like to add your own questions to the database, you will appreciate the auto-numbering
feature. It searches for the last number and then assigns the next number in the progression.

Other Features

Extrication chapters. We have given the user complete control over the question database.
