Handbook of Format Models for Designers of Technical Training Materials.

Abstract

Substantial evidence indicates that significant training gains can be made through the systematic application of learning principles in the design of learning packages. This report provides a handbook of format models, based on learning principles, for use in constructing training materials for the following types of tasks common to Navy jobs: performing procedures; recalling facts about equipment; applying rules and regulations; classifying objects and signals; and recognizing and drawing symbols. Each format model shows the kind of information to present for a specific class of task, how to format the information, and how to sequence it. The model serves as a specification for creating the types of pages required for efficient training. For each format model there are sample learning objectives, a description of the learning strategy incorporated in the model, and one or more sample instructional modules based on the page specifications. This handbook was specifically prepared for use in developing instructional material according to the Navy's Procedures for Instructional Systems Development.
