Training and Education Must Leverage Technology and Innovation

摘要

As we "build-down" our armed forces, and transform from an Army at war to an Army of preparation, military trainers and educators face a sweeping paradigm shift. The traditional learning environment is transitioning from that of solely instructor-delivered content to content available at the push of a button. Our Army has benefited greatly from the increased use of technology throughout the force. In the same way, our training and education systems must leverage the advantages these new technologies and innovations provide. This will enable faster and more detailed training and allow instruction to occur anywhere, not just inside the classroom. Technology will allow us to update our training while maintaining the consistently high standards our force deserves.
