The Long-Range Role and Mission of Instructional Program Development Centers: Economic Assessment,

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide emphircally-based factors which could be used to develop a realistic long-range plan for the orderly implementation and efficient management of the Navy's Instructional Program Development effort. The specific objectives were: document the resources expended by functional area of the ISD model; identify factors, contingencies, and problems encountered in the IPD effort which impact on efficiency; provide an objective data base from which productivity estimates can be derived for planning; provide data which could be used to aid in developing a more cost-effective management plan for future IPD efforts; identify areas which could be investigated as to the feasibility for improving efficiency and operation of the IPDC effort. Originator-supplied key words included: Instructional Systems Development, Instructional Program Development, Cost-Benefit Analysis, Economic Analysis, Manpower Utilization, Productivity, Cost Effectiveness, and Training.
