A Comparison of Officer Job Content Modules with Activity Groupings Implicit in Course Design,
Abstract
A new, more specific language for describing work activities is being designed for the Army on an experimental basis. This language is designed for the purpose of improving communications between resource and requirement planners and program operators. Also, it will permit the integration of future data bases. The new language is based upon a concept called the duty module. Duty modules are clusters of tasks that tend to go together occupationally and organizationally in meaningful ways. They are initially identified and formulated based upon a detailed examination of task inventory or job analysis data. Then attention is given to ways in which these tentatively identified job content modules can be tested against various available criteria of operational utility.
