Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a critical review of the analytic models which have been developed by the Army to predict training device effectiveness. In particular, special consideration is given to a family of models known collectively as TRAINVICE. Although they are all intended to provide an index of transfer potential, these four models differ in several important ways. The variables considered in the calculation of the indices are given different degrees of emphasis (or weight) in each model. In fact, in some cases a variable is ignored completely; e.g., the instructional features of a training device. The preparatory analyses employed to estimate the values of each variable change a great deal from model to model. Moreover, the combinatorial procedures used to calculate an index of effectiveness from the variable values are very different in each model. A major goal of this report is to present the principle points of difference among the various predictive models, and thus facilitate a comparative assessment of their merit. The results of the analysis and subsequent validation will provide a basis for the selection/refinement of one or more of the models for incorporation into a defined set of procedures for specifying training device effectiveness.

Download or read book The Role of Prediction in Training with a Simulated Orbital Docking Task written by Charles R. Kelley and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of the literature relating to the role of prediction in manual control resulted in substantial evidence indicating that learning to control vehicles in complex maneuvers such as orbital docking is primarily a matter of learning to predict the future states of the vehicle. The purpose of this project was to: (a) investigate the relation between the ability to predict and manual control skill, and (b) determine the effect of prediction training on learning vehicular control. Two simulated docking experiments were performed. The results supported the hypothesis that ability to control is highly correlated with ability to predict. It was also demonstrated that while prediction training alone is no more effective than standard training, a combination of the two training methods appears to be much more effective than training in either control or prediction alone. It is therefore recommended that manual control training programs incorporate training in prediction. It is also recommended that associated training devices be revised or developed so as to incorporate means of training prediction skills and of measuring prediction capability. (Author).

Download or read book Handbook of Simulator Based Training written by Eric Farmer and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in simulation technology have enabled an interesting amount of training and instruction to be conducted on training simulators instead of on real systems. However, experiences with the procurement and use of training simulators has not always been as successful, often owing to a lack of knowledge of didactics and of training programme development, and also to inadequate simulator specifications. The Handbook of Simulator-based Training represents the first comprehensive overview of the European state of the art in simulator-based training. It also comprises a well-founded and systematic approach to simulator-based training and the specification of simulator requirements. The multi-disciplinary research project described in this book combines the expertise of specialists in human factors, information systems, system design and engineering from 23 research and industrial organizations from five countries - France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, the UK. The authors have synthesized and documented the project results to ensure that this handbook provides not only many valuable guidelines, but more importantly a common frame of reference. It will be a key resource for the many specialists who are concerned with simulator-based training: researchers, engineers, and users; military training institutes and training system development departments; military staff responsible for the procurement of training devices and simulators; the simulator industry; the training research community; and the human factors and ergonomics community.

The overall ratings reflect the initial performance of the Soldiers to be trained on the tasks covered by the training technology, task and subtask characteristics, learning difficulty, residual performance deficits after using the technology, physical and functional similarities to the operational environment/equipment, and training transfer. The questions in the tool are presented via an Excel program, whereby all mathematical calculations are automated and transparent to the user. The tool can be used at any stage of training technology design and implementation.
Download or read book Prediction of Job Performance written by Robert Vineberg and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature pertaining to prediction of enlisted military job performance, 1952-1980, was reviewed. The review excluded studies in which training performance or reenlistment is the criterion. Aptitude was the most frequently used predictor and supervisor ratings the most frequent criterion. Relationships among classes of criteria and between predictors and criteria were examined. Major classes of criteria were job proficiency, job performance, and suitability to military service. The following conclusions are supported by the review: (1) For the great majority of jobs, job knowledge tests appear to provide the most practical method of objective measurement; (2) Because job sample tests are very expensive to construct and administer, their use is not practical unless the job is extremely costly or critical; and (3) Use of supervisors' ratings as the only measure of job performance should be restricted to jobs for which motivation, social skill, and response to situational requirements are the only attributes worth measuring. Two promising approaches to improved prediction are the selective use of miniaturized training and assessment centers and the use of self-paced training performance as a predictor. The review includes abstracts of the studies that were reviewed.

Download or read book Comparison Based Predictions and Recommendations for Army Maintenance Training Devices written by Gary A. Klein and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is part of a larger project to evaluate the use of Comparison-Based Prediction (CBP) techniques as a method to estimate the effectiveness of new training devices and concepts, and to generate design recommendations. The goal of this effort was to CBP to predict the savings in training time that might be realized by introducing maintenance training devices into automotive courses for Army personnel. The intent was to learn about the strengths and weaknesses of the method when used by Army instructional personnel. A secondary goal was to use CBP to generate recommendations for improving the design of maintenance training devices. Predictions were generated separately for two prototype training devices, one developed by Grumman and one developed by Seville/Burtek for use in automotive courses at Aberdeen Proving Ground and Edgewood Arsenal. The approach used Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to (1) identify appropriate comparison cases to be used to provide baseline data, (2) estimate differences between the prototype and the comparison cases and (3) generate predictions by adjusting the baseline data to account for the differences between the prototypes and comparison cases. Subject Matter Experts compared the two prototype training devices either to actual equipment trainers or to maintenance simulators procured for the Air Force.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research note describes the effectiveness model of the Training Effectiveness and Cost Iterative Technique (TECIT), a new model concerned with the cost effectiveness of training devices and simulators (TD/S) at all phases of the life cycle development. Volume II describes the cost model. For the purposes of this study, the effectiveness of a training device or simulator was defined as a function of the following factors: safety, acquisition learning on the TD/S, transfer of training from the TD/S to an exercise on the weapon system during training, job or battle readiness, and the utilization ratio of the TD/S. A research strategy is outlined in the research note. This strategy considers cross-sectional and longitudinal designs, TD/S life cycle phases, and various validity designs (e.g. discriminant, concurrent, and predictive validity). Sampling of subject matter experts' opinions and TD/S is also considered. Also included in this document is a review of related models, including the Device Effectiveness Forecasting Technique (DEFT), Forecasting Training Effectiveness (FORTE), and Comparison Based Prediction (CBP). A comparison of model features is also included, along with sample questionnaires, and an illustrative data base. Keywords: Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI), Cost and Training Effectiveness Analysis (CTEA), Training Effectiveness Analysis (TEA), Training devices, Simulators. (sdw).
