Extracted from two of the three modules of the Pennsylvania Enhanced Driver Education Program Guide, the resources provided on this page include updated PowerPoint presentations of the seven sessions of the Perceptual Driving Curriculum (Module III PA Enhanced E.P.G.).
The updates include illustrative animations, embedded videos for the training sessions updated statistics, and links to web-based resources. Also included are corresponding manuals for instructors and students.
The Stop, Think, and Go Decision Making Process sessions (Module II PA Enhanced E.P.G.) include training presentations and guides for instructors and students, as well as activities and matching worksheets.
Also included is the Working with Your Teen Driver Mentor/ Parent Driver Program. These materials are suitable for parents or other mentors training their novice driver. The objective of making this information available to the mentor/parent is to allow them to become familiar with perceptual driving, the standards for behind-the-wheel practices, and driving environments and to be able to use these established driver education methods and orderly routines when involved with their novice teen drivers. Available with this segment are PDF versions of the slideshow and manuals. These may also be used by classroom and behind-the-wheel instructors or safety program personnel.
Three groups of materials
-
PowerPoint presentations and shows: Will download and open in the computer application of PowerPoint. When projecting or using multiple screens, show in presenter view to allow the availability of the speaker notes.

All animations and videos are available with these version versions.
