Book Description
"The U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI) Armored Forces Research Unit (AFRU) at Fort Knox supports the U.S. Army Armor School (USAARMS) by conducting training research and development. The USAARMS has recently introduced a revised Armor Captains' Career Course (AC3) delivered primarily through Distance Learning (DL). In June 2000, the Director of the USAARMS requested that the AFRU provide Technical Advisory Service in the development and evaluation of a survey of both students and leaders involved with AC3 DL. This report describes the results of the survey developed to gather information regarding factors limiting participation in the AC3 DL course to include Reserve Component policies, monetary and no-monetary incentives, course impact on the student's other unit responsibilities, and factors contributing to student attrition. This report examines both course content and Reserve Component policies impacting distance learning time requirements and computer equipment supporL Results of the survey were briefed to the Director of the USAARMS, and the Director of Training, National Guard Bureau in December 2000."--Stinet.
