Optimizing the Efficiency of Computer-Aided Instruction.

Abstract

The report describes the development and testing of an adaptive training model for optimizing path sequencing in computer-aided instruction so as to minimize training time. The model was applied to a block of the Programming Specialist Course given at Sheppard AFB, Texas. Computer program implementation of the model and CAI course materials was done through use of the PLATO IV CAI system. Trial of the resulting course materials on-line by expert instructors was performed.
