Questioning technique review and scenario specification for the CF IEDD Operator Training course / by Ming Hou ... [et al.].: D68-4/061-2013E-PDF

This document presents the results of a literature review on Questioning Technique (QT)and the development of a scenario, instructional material, and evaluation criteria that support the development of an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS). The use of QT across multiple domains was surveyed and synthesized to illustrate how this knowledge can be incorporated into IEDD course instructional material and the assessment of student QT performance. The QT literature review demonstrated consistent themes across domains. Overlapping strategies that directly support the current teachings of the IEDD course were included as ‘good practices’. Differences between current literature and the course were included as recommendations for either the course, the ITS, or both. The Improvised Explosive Device Disposal (IEDD) scenario was developed to illustrate a two-IED, domestic-oriented threat that reflects CF operational realities and supports current witness questioning and threat assessment training. The scenario used verbal and visual Situation Awareness (SA) elements to enable students to determine the correct Render Safe Procedure (RSP) for three types (i.e., timed, command, and victim)of possible IED threats. Further recommendations derived from the literature review included a proposed questioning framework tailored to an IED-specific domain and a proposed performance evaluation that rates students based on QT performance criteria.
