Evaluation of the Prototype Air Transportation Computer-Based Training (ATCBT) System
Abstract
Instructional Science and Development, Inc. has been under contract to Headquarters, Military Airlift Command (HQ/MAC) to develop, implement, and validate a prototype Air Transportation Computer Based Training (ATCBT) system for use in providing initial, recurring, and upgrade training for MAC aerial port (AFSC 605XX) personnel. The goals established for the prototype training system are to: (1) support personnel development, (2) qualify personnel to perform work assignments, (3) establishment minimum requirements for personnel qualification for specific duties, and (4) identify personnel job training needs. To achieve these training goals, the prototype CBT system was designed to meet the following criteria: 1. Integrate training content from the formal schools, on the job training (OJT), Career Development Courses (CDCs), and the Unit Learning Centers (ULCs); 2. Present interactive, performance-based training at the 9th grade reading level; 3. Develop competency-based training using standard Instructional Systems Development (ISD) procedures; 4. Provide self- paced training modules to minimize supervisory involvement; 5. Provide job specific training information for trainees and training management information for supervisors; 6. Deliver training to the work station where it is easily accessible; 7. Standardize training across aerial ports to meet training requirements for both active and reserve forces.
