Behavioral Objectives: The Dilemma of Empirical Adequacy.

Abstract

The proposed research project will address the feasibility of setting learning objectives for a senior service college. The research methodology will be a combination of literature search and interviews. The product will be a 'boiled-down' analysis of what the most knowledgeable individuals in this area think is possible or not possible. It will be in a form useful to other desiring to (quoting M.G. Morrison) 'apply the findings and recommendations at the War College level as well as to selected subjects at the Command and Staff College level.' A study of this nature is particularly timely and challenging in view of DOD's penetrating scrutiny of officer education programs and the concomitant pressures on the services to restructure their educational systems.
