Book Transfer of SIMNET Training in the Armor Officer Basic Course

Download or read book Transfer of SIMNET Training in the Armor Officer Basic Course written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tactical training using networked tank simulators in the Armor Officer Basic Course allowed a quasi-experimental assessment of transfer to student officer performance in field training. Baseline classes without simulator training were compared in an interrupted time-series design to classes with simulator training. Regression analyses were performed on measures obtained from course records. Transfer of training was found using indicators of (a) the amount and type of field training conducted, (b) officer performance in leadership positions within student platoons, and (c) overall tactical leadership qualities shown by students as rated just prior to course graduation. Benefits of simulator training increased progressively in successive classes as the instructors learned to train using the simulators. The learning to train factor may often cause underestimation of the value of training devices. The report discusses implications for testing and evaluating military training innovations.

Book Virtual Reality  Training   s Future

Download or read book Virtual Reality Training s Future written by Robert J. Seidel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1988, the NATO panel governing human sciences (Panel 8 on Defence Applica of Human and Bio-Medical Sciences) established a Research Study Group to synthe tions size information relevant to Advanced Technologies Applied to Training Design. During its first phase, the RSG established an active exchange of information on advanced tech nologies applied to training design and stimulated much military application of these tech nologies. With the increased emphasis on training throughout the alliance, Panel 8, during its April 1991 meeting decided to continue with Phase II of this RSG focusing in the area of advanced training technologies that were emerging within the alliance. In order to ac complish its mission, the RSG held a series of workshops. Leaders in technology and training were brought together and exchanged information on the latest developments in technologies applicable to training and education. This volume represents the last in a se ries based on the NATO workshops. In Part One, it details findings from the last work shop, Virtual Reality for Training; and in Part Two, we provide a summary perspective on Virtual Reality and the other emerging technologies previously studied. These include computer-based training, expert systems, authoring systems, cost-effectiveness, and dis tance learning. It is a natural extension to proceed from learning without boundaries to virtual envi ronments. From the extended classroom to the individual or team immersion in a distrib uted, virtual, and collaborative environment is an easy conceptual step.

Book Evaluating the Unit Performance Assessment System s After Action Review Displays

Download or read book Evaluating the Unit Performance Assessment System s After Action Review Displays written by Theodore M. Shlechter and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research effort assessed military users' judgments about different versions of the Unit Performance Assessment System's (UPAS') performance feedback capabilities in after action reviews (AARs) for Simulation Networking (SIMNET) training. Interactive demonstrations with SIMNET training personnel and operational unit personnel were performed to determine the utility of the feedback materials generated by UPAS. Specific findings indicated that (a) the slide show method of exercise replay was preferred over an animated rerun method; (b) Battle Snapshot displays were more likely to be used than Exercise Timeline or Battle Flow displays; and (c) divergent opinions existed regarding the value of certain displays.

Book Basic and Applied Memory Research

Download or read book Basic and Applied Memory Research written by Douglas J. Herrmann and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basic researchers unlock the secrets of nature; applied researchers unlock the means by which those secrets of nature can change people's lives. Neither basic nor applied research has an independent impact. These volumes examine the convergence of basic and applied research in the field of memory. Volume 1: Theory and Context, focuses on the methods for understanding and applying basic memory theory, while Volume 2: Practical Applications, expands the understanding of practical memory research by providing in-depth research examples and findings. If the science of memory is to make a significant contribution to society, coordinating our basic and applied efforts and determining how they complement each other become of paramount importance. These volumes will help in this regard--both as textbooks demonstrating how to investigate memory and apply basic memory theory, and as reference sources leading to a better understanding of certain problems in basic and applied memory research. Readers of these volumes will gain a thorough grasp of the way major themes relate to basic and applied research collaboration, how programmatic basic and applied research can be conducted on particular memory problems, and the manner in which basic and applied work in major problem areas has been incorporated into the field of memory. Both volumes present important information that will be indispensable to researchers and students alike.

Book Combined Arms Structured Simulation based Training Programs

Download or read book Combined Arms Structured Simulation based Training Programs written by Dorothy L. Finley and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of research and development programs on structured simulation-based training (SST) were conducted during the period 1993-1999. These programs focused on developing SST training Support packages (TSPs) to meet collective training requirements for the combined arms at echelons of brigade and below. An SST development methodology was also produced. The purpose of the methodology was to support future TSP developments as requirements for them are identified. This report represents the second portion of a two-part examination of issues related to SST. The first report described the history of these programs and their lessons learned. This report presents findings in three areas which were either not directly addressed or insufficiently resolved in published SST reports. These areas are: the respective roles of the constructivism and behaviorism/Systems Approach to Training instructional theories in designing the SST TSPs; needs for additional information and SST- related research; and planning and logistical requirements for integrating and maintaining SST as a part of the U.S. Army training system. The information needed to address these three areas was obtained from structured interviews and questionnaires.
