as new language students arrived for courses. The Language Lab also welcomed
its new independent contractor, and immediately assigned him
to the task of reducing the mounting audiotape duplication backlog.
2. The Visual Aids Section had a busy week as it:
- created a brochure for ITD on "Signals Equipment;"
-- recreated CT TRACKS and vugraphs for CTD;
went on a photo assignment to a NOVA reading center for
CTB; and

Statement" brochure for SACTD.

4. OR1 CBT will be tried out in classroom courses in September, November,
and December, as will the 100-item exam tha has done. Beginning
early in 1989, the CBT version of the course (followed by a classroom workshop
held at Headquarters) will become the sole method of delivery of the course
during a trial period that will last 3 - 6 months. If successful, this mode
of delivery will be permanently adopted. These decisions were reached in a
meeting between WOTD, IMS Training, and CBTG on 14 September.
5. The linear video version of SDIV (pronounced "Steve", for Surveillance
Detection Interactive Video) has been completed and will be delivered to CIB
on Monday 19 September. The process of transferring video segments from the
master used for the videodisc was much more arduous than we had anticipated
because the segments on the videodisc. were not in anything approaching the
same sequence required for linear presentation.
