Download or read book Audio Teletraining for Unit Clerks written by Robert A. Wisher and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A cost effectiveness analysis of training Army National Guard soldiers by audio teletraining technology was conducted. The trainees were n=225 soldiers nationwide. About half of the trainees received training in a 3-week Unit Clerk Course through traditional residence training at the Professional Education Center in Little Rock, AR. The remainder received the same instruction by the same instructor through audio teletraining, a low cost training technology. Objective performance data were collected from written tests on 16 of the 47 tasks taught. Trainees in the audio teletraining group had a 93% Go rate (on first attempt), which was significantly higher (by statistical test) than the 85% Go rate for the residence group. In comparing costs, the audio teletraining group had lower training costs, on average $1,135 per trainee. This was due primarily to an avoidance of travel costs for the audio teletraining group. Projected on an annual basis, the Army National Guard can save $292,404 per year through the use of audio teletraining for the Unit Clerk Course."--DTIC.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In accordance with an agreement with the National Guard Bureau (NGB) a simplified evaluation form was developed that assessed demographic, instructional, and technology factors for distance learning training events of short duration. The evaluation form was derived from the good practices identified in the research literature, and was used during the assessment of eight distance learning events given by the NGB nationwide. Based on returns (n=1,044) the evaluation form proved to be a reliabel instrument which demonstrated adequate face validity. Based on these results, a slightly modified form was developed for use by the NGB for all short-term, distance learning events.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Staff Group Trainer Project was a research and development effort sponsored by the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences in coordination with the Force XXI Program. The project produced two training support packages (TSP)--battalion and brigade-- designed to train these staffs to more effectively and efficiently communicate within and between staff sections, command post, and the unit commander. Based on tactical scenarios developed for the Virtual Training Program, both TSPs focused on staff functions that support the military decision-making process within the execution phase of the movement to contact, deliberate attack, battalion defense in sector and brigade area defense missions. The TSP design and development were based on lessons learned from previous Virtual Training Program efforts, structured design methodology, and adult learning principles. This report provides details on the Staff Group Trainer Project's history, methodology, and lessons learned."--Stinet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digitization is the future of the Army. However, along with digitization come training and personnel implications. This report discusses training issues associated with digitization, specifically those that address a need to train and maintain backup along with digital skills. Backup skills are the individual and collective skills required when digital systems are degraded or unavailable. The study focused on the digital M1A2 Abrams Main Battle training program as an exemplar. Lessons learned about digital and backup training requirements should be applied in the M2A3 training program. The study investigated issues that are applicable to a wide range of digital applications and training conditions. The study examined individual and collective tasks that support tank operations and found both digital and backup tasks to be poorly defined, particularly in collective performance. A method for analysis is described and analytic results reported. The study also outlines the current state of training armor and infantry soldiers and the impact that increased digitization may have on training pipelines. The study employed a series of expert groups to define issues and formulate recommendations. These groups included users, developers, researchers, and trainers with a wide spectrum of experience and viewpoints. Expert group results are reported and include 15 primary issues and accompanying recommendations.
