Training Requirements and Job Language Performance Requirements for MOS 11B, Infantryman.
Abstract
The Job Language Performance Requirements (JLPR) study was conducted to determine language tasks the soldier must do in studying/performing job tasks. The language skills (listening, reading, writing, speaking) required to learn each Army job task were identified, conditions studied, and standards determined. The data that generated the JLPR is identified. In order to establish English language performance objectives for MOS 11B, a survey of all tasks included in the July 1978 edition of the FM-7-11B, 'Soldier's Manual', was first accomplished. In this survey, a task prioritization checklist approved for use by the Department of Army was distributed to both the AIT cadre at Fort Benning GA and the Unit cadre for completion. The raw data collected on the checklist was converted to meaningful information in two basic reductions: (a) a prioritization of tasks according to criticality and (b) a prioritization of the four language skills (reading comprehension, listening comprehension, speaking and writing) involved in all tasks.
