The filmstrips run about 10 minutes each and are on the following topics: 1. "Let's Look at the Learner"--Puts emphasis on the learner and stresses the importance of realistic objectives. 2. "Looking at Visual Aids"--An introduction to the use of visual aids for the prospective teacher. 3. "Looking at Teaching"--Illustrates the relation- ship of teacher and student. Covers preplanning, motivation, testing. 4. "The Teacher as a Speaker"--Shows the hazards of poor speaking habits, and the advantages of good ones. 5. "Room for Learning"- -Stresses the importance of a favorable physical environment for effective instruction and learning. The text, The Supervisor as an Instructor, was written by Martin M. Broadwell, a teacher-trainer with Southern Bell Telephone. While there are no simple rules to apply which will automatically guarantee success as an instructor, this book does provide a practical guide to techniques which every instructor can use of improve his classroom effectiveness. These materials are available for use by other Agency components which need to train instructors. For further information, call the OTR Registrar Staff, extension 2533.

It is a compilation of representative statements by presidents of the United States on the importance of intelligence. The pamphlet "Presidents of the United States on Intelligence, " which appeared first in a "For Official Use Only" version last spring, was inspired by the desire of ranking officials of the Agency to have a ready source book of presidential "quotable quotes. " Some officials also felt that such a compilation might be of special interest to new professional employees, particularly Career Trainees. Accordingly, the Curator of the Historical Intelligence Collection compiled the pamphlet. The first edition was "For Official Use Only" because it included a number of items not in the public domain. As a result of demand at all levels of the Agency, the possibility of completely declassifying the pamphlet was explored and, after some negotiation by HIC, accomplished with a view to making it available for distribution to selected outsiders. The unclassified edition has been attractively designed and illustrated by OTR. The pamphlet may be obtained upon request to the Orientation and Briefing Faculty, the Intelligence School, OTR, 1000 North Glebe Road, extension 2351.

It elm Paacea mw4 a. Policy: Whenever possible, within security, time and cover limitations and the availability of instruction in a particular language, the Agency Language School facility will be used. If requirements cannot be satisfied internally, external facilities will be considered in the following order: Other Government (e. g. , Foreign Service Institute, Defense Language Institute), then private concerns (e. g. , Sanz, Berlitz, et al). b. Centralization of Communications: Experience shows that it is far more efficient for prospective students to deal with component Training Officers rather than directly with either the Admissions and Information Branch (AIB) or LS. There has been a multitude of instances where direct contacts between the student and the LS have resulted in serious misunderstandings or misinterpretations. In the majority of cases the training problem will be routine enough so that only normal paper work will be involved. If, however, a telephonic inquiry is required (prior to acceptance in the LS), it should be directed by the component Training Officer to Chief, AIB, extension 2896. This procedure considerably reduces confusion. Once external training has been decided on, information can be obtained by telephone directly from the External Training Branch, OTR, extension 3137. c. Procedures for Internal Language Training: Form 73 will continue to be used to request internal language training. Care should be taken to ensure that all blocks are filled in. In addition, it is requested that the following be included as indicated: Block 10 - In this block, explicitly set forth the language training goal; specify the language (including any particular dialect desired), the level of proficiency desired at the completion of the course (e. g. , elementary (E), intermediate (I), high (H), native (N) ), and specify the type of skill desired, SECRET CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY Approved For Release 2000/05/08 : CIA-RDP78-0309OA000300020002-4 SECRET Approved For Rek;Ls 2 AhQA/jD8jz5Cl DP78-03090A000300020002-4 such as "Arabic, Egyptian dialect, reading E, speaking I, writing E. " Indicate the dates the student will be available for training and any terminal date (for instance, estimated overseas departure date). Time should be allowed before the terminal date for testing. A statement such as as much as can be taught within the period available" is not satisfactory. Block 11 - Within the limits of security clearly state how the language skill is to be used. As an example, "Subject is a CT who will be assigned in as a case officer in the 25X1A Fall of 1968" or "Subject is a Russian area analyst who should be able to translate foreign language documents in performing his duties" or "Subject is assigned as a reports officer in Headquarters. " Block 16 - Set forth Agency language training in detail. For example: 1963 P/T French training, 6 hours per week, for 20 weeks 1965 F/T Russian training for 26 weeks Block 17 - Indicate any aptitude or proficiency tests on record with the component, for example: Aug 66, Artificial Language Test - average Chinese 9/7/66 E E E S S French 1/24/61 H I I I I NOTE: Except for professional linguists, language aptitude tests are a prerequisite for internal and external language training. If the candidate has not taken the Agency language aptitude test (FLATB or Artificial Language Test), he should be scheduled as soon as possible. Tests can be arranged telephonically (x3322) and are given every Tuesday afternoon and alternate Saturday mornings at 1000 N. Glebe Road. The test takes about 45 minutes. Training Officers can avoid last minute testing by identifying component personnel who have not been tested and who may require language training, and arranging tests in advance. Untested claimed proficiencies will be tested prior to any training (internal or external) to aid in the measurement of progress during training; when there has been a gap of several years since the last proficiency test in language requested, there will be a retest. As in the case of aptitude testing, required proficiency tests should be completed prior to sub- mission of the Form 73.

For example: Latin - 2 years HS Spanish - 4 years HS French - 2 years College - 1 year Monterey Language School German - Some obtained during 3 year residency Because of the specific linguistic requirements imposed on present or former Career Trainees, CT status should be noted. While the detail requested on language training for the Form 73 may seem excessive, it will largely replace the previous system of an interview at the Language School which was used to obtain these linguistic details. Since this often involved several lost hours to the student in travel time, the net saving will be considerable. The details themselves are required to make an intelligent decision as to whether or not the LS can satisfy the requirement and, if so, in what grouping the student should be placed. When completed the Form 73 should be forwarded to RS/AIB/OTR, Room 832, 1000 North Glebe Road,at least six weeks before the desired date to begin training. The Form 73 will be processed and necessary information added before forwarding it to LS for consid- eration and reply. Scheduled course dates are published in the OTR Catalogue of Courses and in the OTR Bulletin. d. External Language Training Procedures: Once it has been determined that internal language training is either not possible or not appropriate, the alternative of external training arises. Requests for external language training as usual will be accomplished on - 25X1A and the normal procedures followed. In each case, the various training alternatives will be individually weighed in light of the linguistic, cover, security, time and cost factors involved. It is critical that there be a careful statement of training goals and dates of student availability, however, the linguistic background furnished on the Form 73 need not be duplicated. When approved, the student will be individually and fully briefed by OTR/ETB on all aspects of the training. It should be noted that among the wide range of capacities offered by the external training alternatives, virtually any linguistic requirement can be filled. e. Approval Process: Under the current system, approval is accomplished as follows. First, it is anticipated that the majority of applicants will be accepted for scheduled internal courses. When this SECRET CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY Approved For Release 2000/05/08 : CIA-RDP78-0309OA000300020002-4 Approved For Release 2000 1dfTCIA-RP~~8-03090A000300020002-4 O CIA INTERNAL USE is the case the decision will be made prior to the four week deadline. Every effort will be made to accept all candidates, however, there are limitations imposed by the number of students received and their capacity to fit into linguistically compatible groups. A study group whose capacities or level are too disparate is neither satisfactory from the stand point of linguistic success or morale. Acceptance, once scheduled classes start, is usually dependent on being able to fit into an ongoing class, which obviously reduces the chances for acceptance. Strong motivation and hard work can to some degree replace aptitude, but this has its limits. The LS reserves the right to cancel scheduled classes where there are insufficient numbers of qualified students. Students who must start before a scheduled class begins (or leave long before it ends) or whose tenure will be subject to major interruptions for TDY or training or whose aptitude and/or linguistic background departs from the norm, may not be accepted. In these instances usually external training will meet the requirement. f. Time Factors: In cases of acceptance or rejection for training by the Language School, a reasonable time period is necessary for the components either to prepare for the student's absence or find other alternative training. To permit this, the normal date of notification of acceptance for internal training will be four weeks prior to the scheduled starting date. Since the average processing time within OTR is two weeks, this means the completed Form 73 should reach AIB six weeks or more prior to the scheduled starting dates. While applica- tions received after this will be considered, it is plain that once the selection is made and notification of acceptances forwarded, chances for admission of late entries are reduced. Unfortunately early submission cannot guarantee acceptance since this involves a function of matching employees whose linguistic patterns are compatible. Every reasonable effort will be made to meet earlier deadlines for acceptance notification when required, however, if this precedes the selection process OTR's responses can only be tentative. g. Costs: Internal training is normally provided at no cost to the component. External language training costs will vary widely and are normally borne by the component; an exception is that OTR will budget for most anticipated FSI language training. To cite a few examples of costs (as of Feb 68), the FSI charges $1061 per student for 16 weeks full time training in world languages and $3728 for 44 weeks of intensive "hard" languages (e. g. , Asiatic, Slavic, African, Arabic). The Defense Language Institute tends to be a little less expensive and occasionally if there is just one Agency student in a class where DLI has a fixed cost, we may participate at no charge. The local private language schools (Sanz, Berlitz) run $6 per hour and up (with 4 hours a day considered a normal full time tutorial).

Aliases: Because of the security problems inherent in using language instructors with limited clearances, the Clandestine Services and certain of the Support Services have decided that it is desirable for students to attend the Language School using alises. There will be exceptions in instances where the student has previously been known to the instructor in true name. Component Training Officers should be aware that registered aliases may be required; these are obtained the component in the normal manner. If an alias, suitable for this use is not already assigned, it is suggested that it not be requested until such time as the student is accepted at the Language School. i. End of Course Report: At the termination of training a final report will be prepared by the LS which will show: 1. The language and number of hours of training given. 2. Final proficiency level attained. This will be made part of the Agency Training Record, a copy will be provided to the sponsoring component, and a copy filed in the employee's 201 file. j. Background: The LS has been engaged for some time in an effort to maximize the efficient use of its resources and in reappraising exactly what languages should be offered at what levels and with what frequency. While the process will continue for some time, certain trends are emerging. In very general terms these appear to be as follows: 1. Certain languages are in such small demand that it is neither economical nor linguistically desirable to teach them internally. This is particularly true where reasonable external alternatives exist. 2. At least at the present time, the greatest need exists for languages to be taught at the basic level. 3. The greatest part of the costs of maintaining the school are fixed ones, therefore, the cost of teaching several people in a class is not a great deal more than teaching only one. Whenever possible, preference will be given to groups over tutorials, therefore, the student who fits into a group will more likely be accepted for internal training. 4. It is patently uneconomic to satisfy all Agency language requirements internally; however, between internal and external alternatives, very few requests will be unfilled within the time limitations imposed and giving due regard to cover and security limitations.

Simultaneously OTR is making an effort to realign the admissions system to provide more rapid and definite answers to component requests. This will entail in part provision by consumers of more detailed information on the Form 73, realigning and centralizing contact systems, providing more formalized instruction. 4a yua ye 7edU" Sdedaee 1. Officially establish for record (Language Qualifications Register (LQR) ) claimed linguistic proficiency for new employees not previously tested, employees who acquire proficiency after they are employed and to update proficiency tests older than three years. 2.

For appointments, Training Officers should call Language School, extension 3271. Sdeduee a j 7%4iftesey The goal of the Language School is to provide effective instruction to the maximum number of students in the shortest time in the languages the Agency requires. To do this it has established schedules for starting languages based on what experience indicates is the ideal time and frequency for the maximum number of consumers. These will be altered accordingly with ample notice given whenever it becomes clear that there are either too many or too few runnings of a particular language, where the need for a new language has risen to the point where it should be added to the inventory, where requirements have decreased to the point where it is no longer economically desirable to continue a given language or changes in patterns show other starting dates are desirable. Any changes will be only after discussion with the principal users affected and then promptly announced. It is felt, however, that fixed schedules provide the best planning base for components and Training Officers. Periodically, surveys of anticipated input will be made for long range planning purposes. When this occurs, it is vital to the success of the survey that the responses be as realistic as possible. Time consumed in recruiting and hiring linguists, then getting them security cleared,requires considerable lead time from indications of need to having a trained instructor available and function- ing. In those cases where the Language School provides the basic language skill and advanced study is provided elsewhere (e. g. , FSI or DLI), schedules will be tailored to permit completion of the course plus, where applicable, sufficient time to process for overseas.

There are some indications that the two month interval is too frequent to provide sufficient input to form classes large enough to be economically justified; this periodicity is being re-evaluated. The rationale for full time trainees applies equally to part time trainees. Where the available hours, goals or background are incompa- tible with the majority of the other students, tutorials cannot normally be arranged. It should be obvious from the foregoing that preplanning (where possible) pays dividends to both the component and the LS. One of the main purposes of the selection process being four weeks prior to the scheduled starting dates is to permit reasonable alternatives being made available in sufficient time to meet the need.

In support of its instructional effort, the Language School operates two language laboratories, one at Headquarters and one at Language students- -and any Agency personnel wishing to engage in independent study or refresher exercises--may avail themselves of equipment designed to enhance language training. This includes instructional tape recordings in sixty different languages and tape recordings of current Voice of America broadcasts in sixteen different languages. The Headquarters laboratory is open from 7:30 a. m. to 6:00 p.m. every workday and the laboratory from 8:30 a. m. to 5:30 p.m. The School maintains a library of 3, 500 language and area books for the ordinary use of staff and students. It also supplies tape recordings and textual materials to support language training activities in the field. " It should also be noted that a technician is on duty at all times in the laboratories to instruct students in the use of the equipment. There is a minimum of formality required to gain access to these facilities.

Another important use of this method of instruction is for self-development. Off-the-shelf programs, which are programs prepared by commercial firms for general consumer purchase, or developed by Government agencies or private firms for their own use and then made available to others, may be used for this purpose. Programmed instruction is designed to enable the student to study on his own--it presents a sequence of instructional material, requires a response from the learner, gives immediate knowledge of the correctness of the response, and permits the learner to proceed at his own pace. A large number and variety of programs are available off-the-shelf from commerical publishers, private firms, and some Government agencies. For instance, a Catalog of Programmed Instructional Material has been published by the Bureau of Naval Personnel. It includes infor- mation regarding all instructional units which have been programmed by the Navy and which will be made available to all training activities of the Navy and other military services. A total of 380 programs are listed, including such subjects as electronic warfare, air traffic control, electricity, and photography. Average time required for completion of the programs ranges from 12 minutes for a unit on "Security Regulations" To illustrate the kind of programs available from commercial publishers and private firms, the following list is made up of programs selected from Programmed Learning: A Bibliography of Programs and Presentation Devices, by Carl H.

Attendance may be sponsored by the Agency provided participation can be linked directly to the employee's assignment. Agency sponsorship must be approved through the office, those for non-overt employees are sent to CCS/Ops Serv/DDP first, then to the Registrar. Notification by the Registrar of approval of the application is required before registration procedures are initiated to avoid delay and requests for further information. It is critical that all applicable blocks and approving signatures be obtained. Item 30 is particularly significant in this regard; it is critical that this block contain a concise statement of objective and clear statement relating this objective to the employee's job requirement. Whenever possible objectives should indicate precisely what capability will be altered or enhanced at the completion of the course. For example, a request for language training might read: for each course. pplications of overt employees are sent directly to the Registrar's "At termination of training employee should be able to translate (at the intermediate level) Chinese language newspapers. " A request for maintenance training might read: "At the end of the program the employee should be able without supervision and with normally available tools to accomplish first echelon maintenance on the KZL-27, using the KZL-27 Maintenance Manual. For additional information on the courses in this section or on other external training, call AIB/OTR, extension 2896. On matters of registration, call ETB/OTR, extension 3137. Where academic training is involved or would be germane, a statement covering the applicant's academic background and applicable specialization (e. g. BA - History) is requested.
