Army Institutional Training: Current Status and Future Research

Abstract

This document provides a listing of findings and issues resulting from an overview of current Army institutional training and, from the perspective and constraints of Army training, an overview of current learning theory and science. Findings and issues are categorized as "policy issues" and "research issues." Policy issues, such as training scheduling and availability or quality of training technology, are presented as items with relatively straightforward, direct potential solutions that can be analyzed and considered for adoption by Army institutional training management. Research issues, such as modifying training to address far transfer or integrating problem-centered instructional approaches into Army training, are presented as items with no direct solutions and that are suitable for further investigation, ranging from basic research in training and education to development and assessment of prototype Army training and education products.
