Training for Rapid Acquisition of Critical Knowledge (TRACK)
Abstract
The Training for Rapid Acquisition of Critical Knowledge (TRACK) program will create computer simulation-based training tools to rapidly increase the level of competence of all military service members in areas where rapid training is critical. The first area that TRACK will address is military medicine. For traumatic injury, it is often the medical response that is received in the first few minutes after injury that determines survival. TRACK-Medical will create tools that can be used to train all military personnel to a level of medical competence to provide potentially life-saving treatment in the interval before a military medical professional arrives. TRACK-Medical tools will be open and scalable to be used both to teach basic lifesaving skills to all military personnel as well as deliver more advanced training for medics, corpsmen, and nurses. The tools will incorporate intelligent tutoring and will be able to test and evaluate mastery of knowledge. TRACK-Medical tools will also provide the capability to author scenarios to recreate injuries not normally seen in the civilian world and to adapt to changing wound patterns being encountered in combat.
