Developing Effective Embedded Training
Abstract
Embedded training systems have several unique requirements as compared to more traditional training systems. For the most part, these requirements stem from the fact that traditional instructors and other technical support personnel are not typically available in the operational environment. Hence, embedded training must be essentially stand-alone systems. This requirement means that embedded training systems must be highly automated and intelligent. As a starting point, it must be noted that developing effective embedded training systems should hinge on sound research into how people learn. In addition, modern technology offers a variety of capabilities that were not available even 5 years ago. Taken together, principles of learning supported by technology can yield effective embedded training systems. The sections that follow lay out the components of an effective embedded training system. It begins with tenets from scenario-based training and then adds components of intelligent tutoring.
