Review of High Memory Demand Courses in the Military Intelligence Officer Basic Course (MIOBC): A Case Study

Abstract

For this report, researchers evaluated the training procedures used in the 'Soviet Threat' component of the Military Intelligence Officer Basic Course at the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and School. Statistical analyses revealed difficulties with certain components of that course, and also confirmed that performance in this block of instruction was inferior to other blocks in that course. Based on these analyses and interviews and survey data, it was recommended that learning aids be developed, a laboratory section be added, and that a computerized tutorial system be developed. Such a system would not only benefit the immediate acquisition and retention of information, but would also serve as a remedial resource as students progress through the course.
