Automating instructional support for SBT: next-generation expeditionary warfare intelligent training (NEW-IT)
Article No.: 30, Pages 1 - 5
Abstract
Although scenario-based training (SBT) supports optimal transfer-of-training for complex domains (such as the modern battlefield), it is often inefficient and workload intensive. To mitigate these operational challenges, adaptive, intelligent, and dynamic SBT solutions are being explored. Participants in this session will discuss their approaches and progress towards achieving automated instructional support for military SBT simulations.
