A Conceptual Framework for the Enhancement of Knowledge Transfer

Daytona Beach, Florida

This paper describes a conceptual framework which may make training and education programs more effective and efficient by integrating automated prescriptive assessments with interactive distance learning technologies. The anticipated results include: (1) determination of individual needs by an automated prescriptive assessment process, and (2) providing students with the most appropriate curricula. The concept of operation for the proposed automated prescriptive assessments concept includes participant identification, enrollment, automated prescriptive assessment, course activities, asynchronous events, and performance assessment as well as program evaluation. Implementing the automated prescriptive assessments concept entails an analysis of training tasks for evolving training requirements feedback from established courseware users. The analysis provides a listing of training objectives (terminal objectives and learning objectives) and corresponding questions.
