Maintenance Training Simulator Design and Acquisition: Handbook of ISD Procedures for Design and Documentation.
Abstract
This technical paper presents a method for deriving training requirements, selecting an approach for meeting the training objectives identified, and making training equipment fidelity and instructional feature design decisions where training hardware is needed. The procedures supplement existing materials (AFP 50-58, and the 3306th Test and Evaluation Squadron Procedural Handbook, Edwards AFB) by clarifying existing training technology and providing new procedures to assist the ISD analyst in designing and documenting training equipment. The handbook expands upon currently used procedures in three major decision areas. These are (a) determining which training requirements require hardware or training equipment of some type, (b) selecting the degree of fidelity with which to represent components and parts on the training equipment, and (c) choosing instructional features to be incorporated in the training equipment. All procedures use decision flow charts to increase objectivity. The method results in documentation that is to be used as a basis for completing the ISD-Derived Training Equipment Design. The design is then communicated to the Simulator System Program Office (SimSPO) for use in preparing procurement specifications to contractors. (Author)
