Download or read book Development and Evaluation of a Remedial Numerical Skills Workbook for Navy Training written by Harry L. Bowman and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is concerned with the development of a Navy-relevant numerical skills workbook for use in Navy recruit training commands. The development of a test instrument for selecting students who should use the workbook is also addressed. This project was undertaken by the Training Analysis and Evaluation Group (TAEG) and Memphis State University as one of several initiatives in response to tasking by the Chief of Naval Education and Training (CNET) in the area of improving basic academic skills. The results of a field test of the workbook by personnel of the Orlando Recruit Training Command Academic Remedial Training and Apprentice Training divisions were positive. Both the workbook and associated tests proved to be useful tools. Students are interested in, and motivated by, the Navy-related materials in the workbook. The workbook, intended as a prototype for future development, is to be distributed to Navy Junior ROTC students in high schools throughout the United States. Adoption of this workbook by both Apprentice Training and Academic Remedial Training divisions is also being considered. (Author).

This book was released on 1980 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, basic skills training for enlisted Navy personnel has become an increasing necessity. Reading, verbal language, and mathematics instruction have been addressed in various programs designed for recruits, general detail sailors, and technical training qualified personnel. The current emphasis on basic skills training is expected to continue into the foreseeable future. The purpose of this paper is to report on a field test of the numerical skills workbook that was conducted with enlisted Navy personnel at the Recruit Training Command in Orlando, Florida. Information will be provided on the subjects, data sources, implementation procedures, and results. Background information will be presented in a description of the developmental activities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was twofold: to examine the extent of basic numerical skills deficiencies in the population of recruits bound for Apprentice Training and to examine whether selected Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test scores could be used to predict numerical skills performance. This project was undertaken by the Training Analysis and Evaluation Group (TAEG) and Academic Remedial Training (ART), Recruit Training Command, Orlando, as part of a larger project tasked by the Chief of Naval Education and Training in the area of improving basic academic skills. Of 293 recruits bound for Apprentice Training, more than 100 failed to pass a basic test of Navy numerical skills. Deficiencies were in the area of application of math skills rather than in the basic numerical operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. When selected ASVAB scores were analyzed, an effective formula was derived to predict a numerical skills deficit. The ASVAB subtest score for Arithmetic Reasoning (AR), combined with Paragraph Comprehensive (PC) and Numerical Operations (NO) scores, was found to be the best predictor. (Author).
Download or read book Computer Based Approach to the Navy s Academic Remedial Training Project PREST Performance Related Enabling Skills Training A Cost Effectiveness Evaluation written by R. A. Wisher and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy may be forced to use larger numbers of marginally qualified recruits in the future, because of manpower shortages. If this occurs, academic remedial training (ART) will have to be expanded, resulting in a greater number of instructors. Automated instruction is an attractive alternative, since its use can reduce the number of instructors needed. Therefore, to determine the economic and technological feasibility of automated instruction for the ART program, the Chief of Naval Education and Training contracted for the development and test of a computer-based approach, hereafter referred to as the Performance-related Enabling Skills Training (PREST) Program. The objectives of this effort were to compare the instructional effectiveness of the PREST configuration with that of the standard classroom approach, quantify the differences in effectiveness in terms of cost savings, chart the expected future costs of each alternative as a function of time, and predict the point at which the alternatives break even. Although PREST is not now as cost-effective as the classroom approach to ART, it may become cost-effective in the future. Its cost-effectiveness can be influenced by advances in computer technology (e.g., the continued development of stand-alone systems), the type of instructor used (i.e., military vs. civilian), and the relative costs (e.g., salaries, overhead costs) incurred for these instructors.
