The overall goal of this project is to develop an electronic performance support system (EPSS) to provide instructional design assistance to users of computer based training (CBT) authoring environments. It emphasizes providing support to course developerswho are naive about instructional design methods. To achieve this goal, the following objectives will be addressed: (1) develop a matrix of instructional design methods by authoring decisions/situations; (2) identify the functions, resources, andconstraints on the performance of the instructional design/authoring tasks, when conducted by individuals naive to instructional design principles; and (3) develop requirements, specifications, and a prototype of the user interface for the proposedsoftware tools.The proposed software tools will provide instructors with a ready resource for implementing state of the art methods for designing CBT and ADL to maximize trainees depth and speed of comprehension.
