Utilization of Tactical Computers for Training: Job/Task and Training Analysis

Abstract

This Research Report presents the Phase II results in the development of TACFIRE Automated Instruction courseware. The overall aim of this report is to extend the scope of the application of computer assisted interaction to the development of self-instructive programs and procedures for users of tactical data processing systems. The purpose of the job/task analysis is to show the five functional areas selected for AI training and to report the results. These Functional areas are: Technical and Tactical Fire Control (FM); Artillery Target Intelligence (ATI); Ammunition and Fire Unit (AFU); Support (SPRT) and System (SYS). The job/task analysis conducted in this report is based on an analysis of TACFIRE documentation, and analysis of the system engineering of training documentation prepared by the U.S. Army Field Artillery school, discussions with TACFIRE personnel at USAFAS and demonstrations of hands-on operations of the TACFIRE equipment.
