Abstract

This report is the first in a series of reports that will document the results of a study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of individualized instruction (II) compared to conventional instruction (CI). The present report provides information concerning the relationships of method of instruction, ability level, and type of training task to training time, training costs, end-of-course grades, and fleet supervisor ratings for graduates of 19 Navy 'A' Schools. Data were obtained on over 5,000 Navy technical school graduates of II and CI courses. (Author)
