Case Analysis Effectiveness

The Case Analysis tool that was used in the Unmanned Aerospace System course was very effective and very easy to understand. The peer review section was very helpful in the correction of mistakes due to typo and insufficient information. It also helped me in improving my case analysis by showing how to explain an important information in a way that is easily understandable to whoever that the case analysis is meant for.

At my present position as an Aircraft Systems Engineer, this Case Analysis tool has helped me to become a better reviewer of different aircraft documents namely Work order, Air worthiness Directives, Task card, Engineering Order, Service Bulletin to name a few. It has actually helped me in properly reading between the line as well as having great input in important documents that might have cost my company a lot in fine from the Federal Aviation Administration due to mistakes.

I also expect this Case Analysis to help me in any future job I have since most aircraft organization and airlines want an engineer who has a great working relationship with a team of different individuals and reaching the desired goal of the organization.

Finally, this process could be improved by making sure that when a Case Analysis is reviewed, the response to the review should be made on the same document and not on a different document like the way we did it in this course. I also believe that there should be direct interaction between the reviewer and the individual that writes the Case Analysis at least once or twice this is because there are some information that are better communicated through speech and not writing.
