The Simple Genius of Checklists, from B-17 to the Apollo Missions

The Simple Genius of Checklists, from B-17 to the Apollo Missions

Instead of making the pilots undergo further training, however, Boeing came up with a simple yet ingenious solution – a pilot checklist. “We use checklists in everything from procedures in system test plans to reminders on how to restore backups to our computer, says David Oberhettinger, the Chief Knowledge Officer of the Jet Propulsion Lab. For example, here’s the checklist we have created in Nuclino to onboard new team members:

Daniel Boorman, a veteran pilot working for Boeing and the technical lead for the development of the 787’s pilot system of checklists, has worked with the FBI, the World Health Organization, the American Society of Radiation Oncologists, and many more.

Have Smartphones Destroyed a Generation? (2017)

Have Smartphones Destroyed a Generation? (2017)

But the allure of independence, so powerful to previous generations, holds less sway over today’s teens, who are less likely to leave the house without their parents. Nearly all Boomer high-school students had their driver’s license by the spring of their senior year; more than one in four teens today still lack one at the end of high school.

Ravens parallel great apes in flexible planning for tool-use, bartering (2017)

Ravens parallel great apes in flexible planning for tool-use, bartering (2017)

The selection procedure differed from the tool condition because the ravens were given three trays in immediate succession (to be comparable with some studies on great apes) so that the subject could select, and later exchange, three tokens in one trial. Experiment 3 tested planning in a self-control context to determine whether ravens can act with future events in mind by disregarding an immediate, valuable food reward in favor of an item that could give access to an even more valued reward occurring only after a 15-min delay. In contrast to a control condition in which all ravens selected the immediate reward on 100% of trials when no tool or token was available (10 trials per subject), subjects selected the tool on average in 73.8% of the trials (min, 8; max, 12) and the token in an average of 73.2% of trials (min, 7; max, 12).
