This report describes the evaluation of an experimental prototype training system called the Air Controller Exerciser (ACE). The system was developed to demonstrate the use of new technologies for training, including computer speech recognition and generation, videodisc, automated instruction, automated performance measurement and syllabus control, and speech-interactive simulation. Combining these emerging technologies promises to reduce the requirements for instructor manpower and other training support personnel while providing effective, consistent training. The evaluation was conducted with trainees and instructors at the Navy Fleet Combat Training Center Pacific, the training facility for Air Intercept Controllers (AICs). Empirical studies were conducted to validate the performance measurement system; compare ACE to the traditional training program in a Transfer of Training Test; and determine the accuracy of the speech recognition system. Training system features were analyzed and critiqued, and user acceptance was assessed. The cost-benefit relationship of implementing ACE technologies was estimated. ACE successfully demonstrated the potential for the use of new technologies in training. However, a number of changes and improvements would be necessary before ACE would be a acceptable as an operational training system. (Author)
