Feasibility Computer Applications to Mission-Oriented Training in the Aircraft Armament Systems Specialist Career-Field.
Abstract
A survey was conducted of base-level, mission-oriented training of Aircraft Armament Systems Specialists (AFSC 46230) upgrading to the 5-skill level at 3 Tactical Air Command bases. Functions performed by Air Force personnel in support of such training were analyzed, as was the training itself, to determine the feasibility of applying state-of-the-art computer technology to the problems of management and administration of the training. Five computer-supportable functions were identified and rank-ordered by the degree to which they could, if automated, provide increases in training effectiveness and efficiency. Several specific problems related to OJT and the upgrade training process in the aircraft maintenance production environment were also identified. Recommendations were made in the areas of computer support of base-level training, development of task-related instructional materials, and standardization of training and training requirements.
