Night Vision Goggles Computer Based Training

The main product of this research project is the Night Vision Goggle NVG Computer Based Training CBT program. This paper will outline the instructional design methodology used to develop the training, and the programming considerations that were used to actually build it. The Air National Guard Bureau Airspace and Ranges office requested that a CBT be built that will replace existing live training for initial NVG certification for Range Control Officers. The program was developed using Instructional Design techniques to maximize training and provide an evaluation for certification purposes. This paper will discuss the Instructional Design techniques used. A description of the instructional strategy, storyboard development, and interface development will be discussed. Hardware requirements to run the program, along with installation procedures will also be discussed. Finally, limitations and future applications of this product will also be discussed along with limitations of Computer Based Training products.
