"This report documents development of the Brigade Battle Staff Training System (BDE-BSTS). BDE-BSTS, a set of functional area training packages for brigade-level staff officers, is a combination of text and computer-based instruction (CBI). Sponsored by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA), the BDE-BSTS was developed for use by the U.S. Army National Guard (ARNG). The prototype BSTS comprised 13 courses for training brigade staff officers in individual functional areas and those tasks required to prepare stats for collective battle staff tasks. The BSTS program, sponsored under the ARPA program umbrella of Simulation in Training for Advanced Readiness (SIMITAR), is coordinated with three other programs: Simulation-Based Mounted Brigade Training Program (SIMBART), Simulation-Based Multiechelon Training for Armor Units (SIMUTA) and Combat Service Support (CSS) Training System Development for the National Guard."--DTIC.

"This report documents the methodology and lessons learned in the development of the Innovative Tools for Brigade and Below Staff Training - Battle Staff Training System (ITTBBST-BSTS). The ITTBBST-BSTS consists of functional area training support packages (TSPs) for individual battalion and brigade level staff officers. The TSPs combine computer-based instruction (CBI) and text. Each TSP presents a course of instruction as CD-ROM based programs and supplemental text based instruction with a training management system. Courses train commanders and staff officers in their individual combat skills to enhance their proficiency in synchronization of battlefield operating systerns. The ITTBBST-BSTS was developed for use by the Total Force, Active and Reserve, and designed for use in a local area network, wide area network, or stand-alone computer mode. An internal review and external evaluation process supported revision of each TSP. The final products included the TSPs, a Use's Guide, and a System Administrator's Guide."--DTIC.

"This report provides a foundation for future research and development on battle staff training by providing examples of structured training programs for the battle staff. Critical deficiencies in battle staff training were highlighted for both individual and collective skills. Reviews were performed for: (1) military articles on how to improve battle staff performance, centering on use of simulations in a structured training program, and (2) research and development programs to improve battle staff training. Also, possible future directions for battle staff training were discussed."--Stinet.

"This report documents the methodology and lessons learned in the development of the Innovative Tools and Techniques for Brigade and Below Staff Training II - Battle Staff Training System II (ITTBBST-BSTS II). This effort supported the Army's distance learning initiative by developing three computer-based training (CBT) courses of instruction on CD-ROM. An existing Brigade Common Core training support package (TSP) was converted from a text and computer-based TSP to a 100% CBT course with limited adjunctive text materials. In addition, TSPs were developed for the Training Developer and CBT Author to train them to update and maintain an existing library of courses. These TSPs were also 100% CBT. The ITTBBST-BSTS II Brigade Common Core course can replace the similar course in the existing BSTS library of courses for use by the Total Force. The Training Developer and CBT Author courses are designed for use at an institution with responsibility for updating and maintaining BSTS courseware. The Brigade Common Core and Training Developer courses are designed for use in a local area network, wide area network, or stand-alone computer mode. The CBT Author course is designed for stand-alone use only."--Stinet.

"This report is a research byproduct that documents the front-end analysis for development of the Brigade Battle Staff Training System (BDE-BSTS). BDE-BSTS, a set of functional area training packages for brigade-level staff officers, is a combination of text and computer-based instruction (CBI). Sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the BDE-BSTS was developed for use by the U.S. Army National Guard (ARNG). The prototype BSTS comprised 13 courses for training brigade staff officers in individual functional areas and those tasks required to prepare staffs for collective battle staff tasks. The glossary presents the working definitions of terms used in these programs. The BSTS program, sponsored under the DARPA program umbrella of Simulation in Training for Advanced Readiness (SIMITAR), is coordinated with three other programs: Simulation-Based Mounted Brigade Training Program (SIMBART), Simulation-Based Multiechelon Training for Armor Units (SIMUTA), and Combat Service Support (CSS) Training System Development for the National Guard."--DTIC.

Discusses how to plan a staff ride of a battlefield, such as a Civil War battlefield, as part of military training. This brochure demonstrates how a staff ride can be made available to military leaders throughout the Army, not just those in the formal education system.
