Designing multi-media to train the thermal signatures of vehicles
Guidelines for using multi-media technology to train the thermal signatures of combat vehicles were developed from training effectiveness experiments with a prototype multi-media program and the instructional design literature. The guidelines specify requirements for a database of thermal images. The database must be constructed to support vehicle recognition and identification exercises as well as in basic instruction on thermal technology and on thermal cues. Factors to consider in developing vehicle recognition exercises are presented, to include the exercise format, establishment of vehicle sets, selection of part-task training schedules, and the type of feedback needed for soldiers and instructors. How to generate training strategies that adapt to the skill level of the soldier is described. Flexibility in the instructional design is stressed as the primary means of meeting the varied training requirements within the military. The need for an instructor's guide describing how to maximize the training features in a flexible training program is emphasized. The guidelines were applied to a multi- media, thermal training program developed in conjunction with the Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate and the Product Manager for Forward Looking Infrared.
