Presentation Title:
Implementing Learning Engineering in Military Environments: An Operational & Tactical Perspective

Special Event Type: Focus Event

Program Description:

Purpose: Learning Engineering is defined as the iterative systematic application of evidence-based principles, scientific methods, and standardized practices from the learning sciences, education research and systems thinking to produce effective learning outcomes. It functions as a sense making framework for institutional and operational learning and emphasizes a workforce-centered design approach. Learning engineering is enabled through interdisciplinary, mission-focused collaboration and measured by competency acquisition to actualize mission readiness.

Overview: This session examines the balance and synergy between human-centered design and mission command, which involves the exploration of building trust and netcentric information flow within hierarchical, bureaucratic system. With this in mind, there will be a focus on sharing the progress made and/or planned to advance competency-based learning and evidence-based decision making. The panel is intended to represent the perspectives of the civilian joint service, highlighting convergence and divergence in force development approaches.
