Book Small Team Portal Into the 21st Century

Download or read book Small Team Portal Into the 21st Century written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Behavioral scientists from the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences assisted the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA) Simulation Center in conduct of excursions into the virtual 21st Century battlefield. The 1996 Defense Science Board (DSB) Summer Study requested analytical insights about concepts and technologies being considered for small team operations on the DSB's conceptual 21st Century Battlefield. The DSB focused on the concept of using technology to enable small rapidly deployable forces to accomplish missions previously only available to larger forces. Exercises were conducted in a virtual simulation environment U.S. Army and Marine Corps personnel used specially designed devices in a virtual simulation facility to test concepts about the capabilities of small (3- to 12-man) teams operating in a sensor-rich environment. In addition to computer reported data behavioral and tactical observers documented man-in-the-loop soldier performance and interactions with specific equipment. Combat effectiveness was enhanced through sophisticated communication devices and computers. Personnel were able in the virtual environment to perform tasks similar to those that might occur in a future battlefield scenario. A benefit of the simulation was the ability to portray future missions with prototype equipment."--DITC.

Book Dismounted Warrior Network Enhanced Restricted Terrain  DWN ERT

Download or read book Dismounted Warrior Network Enhanced Restricted Terrain DWN ERT written by David E. Eakin and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research encompassed the second in a series of experiments on the functional capabilities of a collection of four Virtual Individual Combatant(VIC) simulation technologies linked in the Dismounted Warrior Network (DWN). These experiments (user and engineering) provided enhanced restricted terrain (ERT) an improved database and VIC systems. The intent was to demonstrate a reliable low cost easy to use way to insert Dismounted Infantry into synthetic virtual environments. Multiple agencies collaborated over several months; experimentation occurred in July 1998. Data collection occurred at the U.S. ArmyInfantry Centers Dismounted Battlespace Battle Lab Land Warrior Testbed and the Fort Benning McKenna Military Observations on Urban Terrain (MOUT) site. The four VICs were networked and the individual soldiers in their VICs appeared (visually) to each other in the virtual environment. User exercises measured theVICs' ability to support the individual soldiers as part of a team performing a collective virtual task of room clearing. The MOUT data collection was an attempt to observe the soldiers in actual room clearing. The U.S. Army Research Institute provided man in the loop observations, results of questionnaires and structured interviews.

Book Assessment and Teaching of 21st Century Skills

Download or read book Assessment and Teaching of 21st Century Skills written by Esther Care and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed description of research and application outcomes from the Assessment and Teaching of 21st Century Skills project, which explored a framework for understanding the nature of these skills. The major element of this new volume is the presentation of research information from the global assessment of two 21st century skills that are amenable to teaching and learning: collaborative problem solving, and learning in digital networks. The outcomes presented include evidence to support the validity of assessment of 21st century skills and descriptions of consequent pedagogical approaches which can be used both to teach the skills and to use them to enhance key learning goals in secondary education systems. The sections of the volume are connected through a focus on the degree to which innovative assessment tasks measure the constructs of interest. This focus is informed by conceptual and methodological issues associated with affordances of 21st century computer-based assessment. How understanding of the nature of the skills, as derived from these assessments, can guide approaches to the integration of 21st century skills in the classroom, is informed by initiatives adopted by participating countries. The guiding questions in this volume are: "Do the assessment tasks measure the constructs?" and "What are the implications for assessment and teaching in the classroom?" It is the third volume of papers from this project published by Springer.

Book Defence Planning for Small and Middle Powers

Download or read book Defence Planning for Small and Middle Powers written by Tim Sweijs and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the processes, practices and principles of defence planning in small and middle powers. Small and middle powers are recalibrating their force postures in this age of disruption. They are adapting their defence planning and military innovation processes to protect the security of their nations. The purpose of this book is to explore defence planning and military innovation in 11 contemporary case studies of small and middle powers in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Oceania. Employing a structured focused comparison framework, it traces patterns in the choices of small and middle powers across the following themes: (1) alliances, dependencies and national ambitions; (2) approaches, processes, methods and techniques; and (3) military innovation strategies and outcomes. Breaking new theoretical ground, it offers a three-pronged typology distinguishing between the strategic defence planner, the transactional defence planners and the complacent defence planner. The book offers a rich array of insights into cases that fall across different geographies, strategic cultures and governance systems. These insights can help guide discussions on how to structure decision-making structures, arrive at ambition levels, formulate priorities, select partners and design defence planning and military innovation processes. This book will be of much interest to students of defence studies, security studies, public policy and international relations, as well as to professionals in defence planning.
