Common Battlefield Training for Airmen

By: Thomas Manacapilli,Chaitra M. Hardison,Brian Gifford,Alexis Bailey,Aimee Bower

Air Force members who do not routinely cross a defended perimeter when deployed may not have received sufficient training for doing so when they need to. The authors conducted surveys and interviews to determine the kinds of experiences airmen have had "outside the wire," worked with subject-matter experts to categorize them and suggest training levels, and developed a series of recommendations for course content and further areas for study.

The Collegiate Learning Assessment

Setting Standards for Performance at a College Or University

By: Chaitra M. Hardison,Anna-Marie Vilamovska

This report describes the application of a technique for setting standards on the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA), a measure of critical thinking value-added at higher education institutions. The goal of the report is to illustrate how institutions can set their own standards on the CLA using a method that is appropriate for the unique characteristics of the CLA." -- provided by publisher.

Cross-cultural Skills for Deployed Air Force Personnel

Defining Cross-cultural Performance

By: Chaitra M. Hardison

Because of its strong interest in providing airmen with the cross-cultural skills that have grown ever more essential to successful mission accomplishment in foreign environments, the Air Force asked RAND to provide a foundation for the design of a comprehensive Air Force program of cross-cultural training and education. RAND researchers responded by first creating a taxonomy covering all behaviors relevant to cross-cultural performance after the need for such a taxonomy became evident from a review of the literature on cross-cultural performance and discussions with Air Force personnel. From this taxonomy, the researchers developed a framework of 14 categories of cross-cultural behaviors--nine categories of enabling behaviors and five of goal-oriented behaviors. This framework was then used in designing a survey for 21,000 recently deployed airmen that asked them to rate the importance of the behaviors to their deployed performance and the helpfulness of training they had received in the behaviors (both over their careers and just prior to deployment). Respondents were also asked to indicate how much training they had received. Recommendations and suggestions for the design of a comprehensive program of cross-cultural training and education and for further research steps were made based on extensive analyses of the results, which included determining whether training needs differed by AFSC, grade (enlisted/officer), and deployment location.
