Book The Development of Structured Simulation Based Training for Digital Forces  Initial Battalion Staff Level Efforts

Download or read book The Development of Structured Simulation Based Training for Digital Forces Initial Battalion Staff Level Efforts written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New command, control, and communication technologies will affect soldier training requirements. Emerging training requirements for Army leaders include competency on a wider variety of tasks, the ability to exploit the capabilities of new technologies, and a clear understanding of digital tactics, techniques, and procedures. Examining these new training requirements now ensures Force XXI's readiness to face the challenges of the 21st century. The current effort, Simulation-Based Multiechelon Training Program for Armor Units-Digital (SIMUTA-D), contributes a first step toward solving some of the key training challenges faced by Force XXI. The SIMUTA-D program features Movement to Contact, Deliberate Attack, and Defense in Sector training support packages (TSPs) that support execution-focused, battalion task force staff training for the digitally equipped battlefield. An observer/controller team and an active unit participated in a series of pilot trials and a formative evaluation of the TSPs. This report focuses on SIMUTA-D's TSP development methods and the formative evaluation data. The data provide a host of lessons learned that should be of interest to future training developers. Suggestions for future training program development are offered.

Book Structured Simulation based Training Program for a Digitized Force

Download or read book Structured Simulation based Training Program for a Digitized Force written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report provides an historical account and analysis of the U.S. Army Research Institute's (ARI) research and development (R & D) efforts on structured simulation-based training (SST). These R & D efforts have led to the development of 30 research reports, 14 conference papers, and over 200 training support packages (TSPs). The developed TSPs focused on optimizing the simulation-based training opportunities for armor and mechanized infantry platoons and companies, and their battalion and brigade staffs. The TSPs have also been developed for representatives of a battalion's or a brigade's combat support and combat service support elements. This report's findings indicate that the developed TSPs would, if utilized properly, help the U.S. Army more fully exploit its advanced simulation-training systems. In addition, 43 lessons learned have been derived from these SST projects. The present report provides a central information source on ARI's SST efforts, and has important implications for future SST research and development efforts."--Stinet.

Download or read book Report on the Expanded Methodology for Development of Structured Simulation based Training Programs written by Charlotte H. Campbell and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) and the Force XXI Training Program have sponsored the development of a structured simulation-based training program for selected staffs of conventional mounted brigades. The development effort, entitled the Combined Arms Operations at Brigade Level Realistically Achieved Through Simulation (and known as COBRAS) resulted in construction of training support packages (TSPs) for large-scale exercises and for small-group vignettes. Development of the scenario and all TSP materials followed the guidance found in the Methodology for the Development of Structured Simulation-Based Training, published by ARI in 1995. This report documents an expanded methodology, based on experience in the COBRAS program. The expansion is contained in the Guide for Development of Structured Simulation-Based Training. The Guide contains additional examples and warnings, and more in-depth coverage of TSP construction and formative evaluations. This report discusses the activities in the methodology."--DTIC.

Book Back up Training Requirements for the Digitized Battlefield

Download or read book Back up Training Requirements for the Digitized Battlefield written by Margaret S. Salter and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study report provides an overview of critical training issues facing the Army as the 21st% Century Force becomes increasingly digital. The focus of this report is on understanding the significant change brought about by digitization and the ramifications that may result in degraded mode or back-up training requirements. This report is the first of three prepared under the U.S. Army Research Institute's Studies and Analysis effort titled Back-Up Training Requirements for the Digitized Battlefield. Issues and concerns documented in this report are addressed in two subsequent study reports: Analysis of Emerging Digital and Back-Up Training Requirements and Issues and Recommendations: Training the Digital Force. The impetus for this effort was provided by the Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel's Directorate of Personnel Technologies. Of concern was the lack of analysis regarding how the Army should address training and sustaining conventional or back-up skills for operations when digital system capabilities become degraded. This issue will become increasingly important as digitization of the force increases and resources decrease."--DITC.

Book Observations about Defining Collective Training Requirements

Download or read book Observations about Defining Collective Training Requirements written by Kenneth D. Cross and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past, collective training requirements have been defined in terms of the mission, mission segments, or broad functions that an Army aviation unit must learn to perform as a group. It is impossible to infer from these broad task descriptions the specific knowledge and skills that can be acquired only through collective training. Without a clear understanding of these requisite knowledge and skills, it is impossible to make prudent decisions about the level of realism that is required for each component of a collective training simulator. This white paper describes the nature of the problem and describes the authors' views about the unique knowledge and skills that can be acquired and sustained only through collective training exercises. All comments are airmed at the training requirements for the Aviation Reconfigurable Manned Simulator (ARMS) and development of the U.S. Army National Guard Bureau (USANGB).-- P.i.
