Intelligent Training Development Methodologies

Abstract

This research effort developed an immersed virtual environment for the instruction of orbital mechanics and Training Studio, a more general virtual environment instructional authoring system. Training Studio provides the instructor with the capability of developing instructional simulations and not needing a computer programmer to translate instructional objectives into code. It provides the instructor with a visual programming system that operates the virtual environment. In a Training Studio session, there can be several processes handling interaction and display of the virtual environment (Vista Viewer), several processes modeling the understanding of the participants (Training Assistant), and several processes controlling the simulation and visual aspect of individual objects (Agent Framework and Profiler). Suggestions for further evolution of this type of software are provided.
