Analysis of Marine Corps Communication-Electronics Schools Computer-Based Education System: An Implementation Plan and Economic Analysis.
Abstract
The Marine Corps Communication-Electronics Schools (MCCES), Twentynine Palms, California, is developing a computer-based education (CBE) system to support its training requirement. This CBE system is projected to provide computer-managed individualized instruction for courses concerning the operation and maintenance of communication and electronics equipment. The CBE system staff at MCCES has initiated procurement actions to acquire the computer system during FY 1980. The Navy Personnel Research and Development Center, San Diego, was tasked by Marine Corps Headquarters (Code OTT) to assist MCCES with the CBE system development. The purpose of this analysis is to develop an implementation plan that will be used by the MCCES staff to aid them in the development of the planned CBE system. The CBE office needed assistance in developing the strategies that are necessary for moving the instructional concept closer to the reality of an operating CBE system. The implementation plan is made up of a list of enabling tasks that must be accomplished to meet identified major milestones. Each enabling task has been prioritized as to degree of critically for successful system implementation. Personnel needed to accomplish each task have been identified and classified as to their required level of expertise, according to classification levels suggested by Marine Corps personnel.
