Project Goals
Extend the architecture to
support integrated SCORM and experiential training for teams
Provide a proof-of-concept
implementation that drives and shapes standards efforts
Provide training that supports
documented DoD training requirements
using the fielded Ambush!
convoy trainer
Work with JADL to transition
integrated SCORM and experiential training to military partners
Work with other prototype
developers to support re-use and integration of all our efforts
Work with the e-learning community
to both promote our approach and benefit from their advances
Phase 1 Accomplishments
Implemented SCORM RTE web
services interface for SCOs
Integrated SCORM and experiential
training using SCORM RTE and DTECS
Released enhanced SCORM RTE
to prototype developers
Re-used by Eduworks, April,
2007
Integrated training system
with DTECS
FOPCSIM
On-going bi-monthly telecons
with JADL prototype developers
Demonstrated integrated training

Phase 2 Plans:
Team Training
Team Definition
Participation on multiple
teams, changing team composition, ad hoc teams
DTECS enhancements for team
training
Defining team membership,
viewing team records
Integrated SCORM & experiential
training for a team
Matching SCORM training to
roles in experiential training
Ensuring that each trainee
on the team trains for their objectives
Phase 2: Integrating
IPA Components
Integrate assessment engines
with experiential training
Integrate Global Learner Profile/Shared
State Persistence (common user database)
Develop guidelines for registering
SCORM & experiential training in repositories
Develop guidelines and support
for defining training objectives across IPA components
JADL Priorities
What will best meet JADL00 priorities & goals?
Transition to military
partners as a turn-key solution
Transition to the open source
community
Transition to the commercial
community
Integration to produce a complete
architecture encompassing other prototype efforts
Any of the above are
possible (but not all of the above)
Different priorities and approaches
are required for each
Transition is a long technical
and relationship process
Start now for a successful
end-of-contract transition
1. Military Transition
Potential programs and partners
JKDDC: Camacho, Willmann,
Krinock (JFCOM)
MarineNet: McDonough (TECOM),
Lozano
USMC, SOIE: Bushika (PMTRASYS),
McDonough (TECOM), Frost (SOIE)
Identify training systems
to integrate
Infrastructure doesn00 sell training; need to package
the infrastructure with the training the customer needs
Promote change in business
practices
Track and record performance
in training systems
Tie-in with existing trainee
and course management systems
2. Open Source
Releasing the sources vs.
establishing a community
Steps to a successful open
source community
Document
component APIs, WSDLs, and data structures
Document SCORM
RTE modifications
00/font>Beta release00/font> to limited community for feedback
Architect components for ease
of re-use and modification
Build user community through 00mplementation Fest00and 00ands
on00tutorial sessions
Develop and document installation
process
Develop and document build
process
Develop testing and compliance
process for community contributions
Release to open source community
Maintain oversight
3. Commercial Transition
Transition Potential:
00/font>Documentation
of the DTECS behavior, data inputs/outputs, and data formats will allow
vendors to construct commercially-supported DTECS implementations00/font>:
JADL
But00what
will motivate vendors?
Need to create a pull from
potential users
4. Architecture
Integration
ECS: assessment
engine integration
Eduworks:
competency tools integration
ADL: content discovery, retrieval,
& modification (D3UI)
2007 prototypes
Stottler Henke
Northrop Grumman
ECS
Forterra
Standards
What SCORM standards modifications
are needed to support our approach?
Web services interface for
SCORM RTE
Support for LSF in the imsmanifest
Our proof-of-concept implementation
can drive and shape standards efforts, but00
Standards must be proposed
and promoted through the appropriate standards bodies
Standards help build the community
& motivate commercial vendors by protecting their investments
Team Training Use
Case
Use of
Other IPA Components
Team of trainees learns convoy
operations using SCORM-conformant content
Each team member trains on
role-appropriate SCORM content
Team participates in simulation-based
training using Ambush! convoy trainer; each team member is assigned
a role consistent with their SCORM training
Ambush! mission,
specific to their training goals, is selected from ADL registry using
D3UI tools
Ambush! results
are analyzed using ECS assessment engine
Each trainee is directed to
role-specific SCORM content for review
Trainees00competency records
are updated using Eduworks competency tools
SCORM RTE
Incorporate our SCORM RTE
modifications into the Sample RTE implementation
