Computer-Managed Instruction: Development and Evaluation of Student Skill Modules to Reduce Training Time

Abstract
The development and evaluation of the CMI Student Skills Project are described within the context of the Air Force Advanced Instructional System (AIS). The student skill modules developed were designed as short packages to be assigned near the beginning of any military technical training course, but which included strategies or procedures that would continue to effect student behavior throughout the course (e.g., behavioral self control techniques). Following a series of student interviews to determine the characteristic problems students encounter in a CMI system, an Orientation to CMI/Time Management Lesson and Study Skills Package were developed and implemented. The Study Skills Package included a self-rating Student Study Skills Questionnaire and four study skills training modules in the areas of reading comprehension, memorization, test taking, and concentration management skills.
