Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) is an independent agency that works for Congress. The GAO watches over Congress, and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayers dollars. The Comptroller General of the United States is the leader of the GAO, and is appointed to a 15-year term by the U.S. President. The GAO wants to support Congress, while at the same time doing right by the citizens of the United States. They audit, investigate, perform analyses, issue legal decisions and report anything that the government is doing. This is one of their reports.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of its transformation to prepare the armed forces to meet current and future challenges, the Department of Defense (DOD) is expanding its use of advanced distributed learning (ADL) techniques in senior- and intermediate-level officer professional military education (PME).To determine whether DOD uses a systematic process for evaluating the results of ADL application, this study examined DOD?s metrics for assessing program effectiveness, compared DOD?s criteria for converting courses to ADL with those of private sector institutions, and identified challenges to ADL implementation. Researchers reviewed and assessed policies and guidance of several DOD offices responsible for overseeing PME activities, studied experience in the private education sector and other parts of the government in measuring the effectiveness of education programs, and surveyed 437 current students and graduates of senior- and intermediate-level PME programs regarding their PME experience. Overall, DOD does not have specific performance goals and metrics with which to assess ADL effectiveness in PME. Although there are established frameworks for assessing program effectiveness by focusing on metrics for learning outcomes, DOD?s oversight focuses on educational inputs such as facilities, student to faculty ratios, and student body composition. Criteria for converting PME courses and curricula to ADL vary by school and military service, are based on subjective choices as to which content is suited for online delivery, and are focused solely on nonresident programs. DOD?s implementation of ADL programs for PME compares favorably with private-sector institutions. Cultural, technological, and resource challenges affect ADL implementation. Five appendixes present study scope and methodology; methodology for the survey of nonresident PME students and graduates; survey responses; ADL applications and additional features of nonresident programs; and comments from DOD. Contains five appenhree tables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on developing an understanding of the complex interplay of forces acting on individual universities and higher education systems to enable leaders and practitioners to take purposeful and strategic action. It explores the challenging landscape of higher education and the pressures that are reshaping the university as a societal institution, describing the complex interplay of technological, sociological, political and economic forces driving change. The issues analysed are global in scope, reflecting the diversity of contexts, but also the common nature of the challenges facing institutions individually and collectively. The analysis draws on the lessons learnt and evidence from over fifty organisational case studies undertaken by the author over the past decade, exploring organisational change in higher education institutions in New Zealand, Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom, and on his engagement as president of the ACODE organisation with colleagues responsible for learning technological change in Australasia. The book helps institutions respond to technological change purposefully, in ways that build upon a clear understanding of the complex nature of the existing institution, its students and the organisational context.

This volume serves as an essential resource to understand the diverse ways in which Covid-19 impacted our societies, including the capacity to innovate, advances in technology, the evolution of the healthcare systems, business model innovation, the prospects of growth, the stability of political systems, and the future of education.
Download or read book Department of Defense Implementation Plan for Advanced Distributed Learning written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vision. The Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) Initiative is providing a federal framework for using distributed learning to provide high-quality education and training, that can be tailored to individual needs and delivered cost-effectively, anytime and anywhere. The Department of Defense (DoD) has developed its ADL Strategic Plan that describes how it expects to use information, computing and communications and technologies to modernize military education, training, and performance support. Importantly, the ADL Initiative's underpinnings and applications are germane not only to the Department of Defense, but to other government organizations, academia, and the private sector, as well. The ADL Initiative, therefore, is a cooperative effort between the public and private sectors to develop and share common standards, reusable learning tools, and content. The department's education and training programs must prepare the total force to meet national security challenges and opportunities. Training technologies, those available today as well as those on the horizon, provide an opportunity to help us achieve that goal. We must be able to train our forces effectively and rapidly, whether they are at home stations, en route, or in the theater of operations. The tools under development through the ADL Initiative will add another level of learning capability and the opportunity to strengthen our already impressive inventory of learning technologies, techniques, and procedures. The ADL Initiative, under which this Department of Defense Implementation Plan for Advanced Distributed Learning has been developed, is a complex and dynamic undertaking. It is designed to meet the goals of the department, the Congress, and the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), as well as the requirements of the warfighter and the DoD learner. This Implementation Plan is a living roadmap that will change over time.
