A method (500) of informing a vehicle operator to improve the operator's
performance includes the steps of receiving vehicle operating data (502);
monitoring an interior portion of the vehicle and receiving operator activity data
from the interior portion of the vehicle (504); receiving vehicle environment
data (506); monitoring the vehicle operator and receiving operator condition
data relating to a condition of the vehicle operator (508); estimating an
operator cognitive load (510); and prioritizing vehicle information based
upon the operator cognitive load for selectively informing the operator of the
