DERIVING TRAINING DEVICE IMPLICATIONS FROM LEARNING THEORY PRINCIPLES. VOLUME II: METHODOLOGY
Abstract
The primary purpose of the study was to investigate the feasibility of developing criteria for the design, development, and use of training devices on the basis of principles formulated in current psychological learning theories. The specific aspect of the study treated in this second volume is the attempt which was made to devise some objective, systematic means of structuring or directing the relatively individual, creative process of deducing practical training implications from learning principles. Among the specific methods and/or products devised to aid in accomplishing this methodological objective were the following: (1) development of lists of specific and common learning principles, (2) development of a task/behavior taxonomy or classification scheme, and (3) development of a four-step matrix approach to facilitate systematic comparisons, of learning principles and task/behavior categories, in the process of deriving training device implications.
