Problems solved by technology

While the primary value of conducting a performance session, such as a training or exercise session, is an effective and accurate assessment, (the basis of measurable and verifiable feedback to the session audience or participant, the after-action review (AAR)) obtaining such assessments during such sessions can be difficult.
A problem in efficiently assessing, or evaluating, performance during complex tasks is defining what is important to be assessed at any given time, and what assessment criteria should be used.
This approach is labor intensive, particularly for complex tasks involving teams of several individuals, and teams in different locations.

Embodiment Construction

[0016] While embodiments of this invention can take many different forms, specific embodiments thereof are shown in the drawings and will be described herein in detail with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the principles of the invention, and as a disclosure of the best mode of practicing the invention. It is not intended to limit the invention to the specific embodiment illustrated.

[0017] Systems and methods that embody the invention improve the efficiency of assessing performance during complex tasks, such as for distributed teams cooperating to achieve a common goal. Assessment accuracy is increased while reducing the work associated with recording behavior observations, preparing material for briefings and debriefings, and presenting feedback messages or comments during and after the assessment session.

[0018] Efficiency is increased because 1) the assessor is prompted during the assessment session with the applicable as...

Abstract

A system and a method for automating performance assessments of an exercise or a training activity provide event assessment information in real-time to one or more evaluators in conjunction with unfolding events. The evaluators can wirelessly communicate assessment information to a database for after action review (AAR).

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The invention pertains to systems and methods for assessing performance of participants during training exercises, or, rehearsing of missions. More particularly, the invention pertains to automated systems and methods to facilitate performance evaluation by providing real-time feedback to evaluators as an activity proceeds. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The importance of training personnel to respond to events such as fires, violent domestic events, accidents or natural disasters (earthquakes, tornadoes, floods or the like) is well recognized. Similar comments apply to military training / mission rehearsal. [0003] Training / rehearsal activities can last hours or days and can involve a large number of geographically dispersed participants. The value of collecting information as to how the exercise was carried out to facilitate an accurate and meaningful after-action review is also well known. One such system and method are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,...
