DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) Skilled Service Personnel (SSP) support emergency response organizations during an emergency incident involving weapons of mass destruction and include laborers, operating engineers, carpenters, ironworkers, sanitation workers and utility workers. SSP called to an emergency incident rarely have recent detailed training on the chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and/or explosives (CBRNE) agents or the personal protective equipment (PPE) relevant to the incident. This increases personal risk to the SSP and mission risk at the incident site. Training for SSP has been identified as a critical need by the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences, Worker Education and Training Program and is consistent with its mission to prevent work related harm from exposure to hazardous materials. The proposed STTR project addresses this SSP training shortfall by exploiting a new training paradigm called just-in-time training (JITT) made possible by advances in distance learning and cellular telephony. BanDeMar Networks and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) - School of Public Health (SPH) propose to develop a JITT system for SSP who are called to an emergency incident that will provide secure access to information and short (<5 minutes) incident-specific learning modules on their cell phones about the hazardous agent(s) involved, the PPE needed and general decontamination procedures for the hazardous agent(s). Learning modules will be designed for cell phone user interfaces and incorporate audio, video, interactive simulations, graphics, animation and assessment. Phase I will investigate the feasibility of a JITT system that operates with most current cell phones over all wireless service providers and that integrates with the incident management system. Phase I will also investigate the instructional design of such over-the-air on-demand information and learning modules. Prototypical learning modules and wireless functionality will be developed in Phase I to support field tests with 60 individuals involved in emergency response operations and/or attending hazardous materials courses at the UMDNJ-SPH. Written surveys and personal interviews will be done to evaluate the proposed JITT system information entry ergonomics, authentication and training ergonomics and quality of the over-the-air streaming content. The JITT system will help reduce the potential risk of injury and illness for SSP who are responding to emergency incidents. The JITT system also has great potential for providing JITT for other training needs in public health.

描述（由申请人提供） 熟练服务人员 (SSP) 在涉及大规模杀伤性武器的紧急事件期间为应急响应组织提供支持，包括劳工、操作工程师、木匠、钢铁工人、环卫工人和公用事业工人。受召处理紧急事件的 SSP 最近很少接受过有关与事件相关的化学、生物、放射性、核和/或爆炸物 (CBRNE) 制剂或个人防护装备 (PPE) 的详细培训。这增加了 SSP 的个人风险和事件现场的任务风险。 SSP 培训已被国家环境健康科学研究所、工人教育和培训计划确定为一项迫切需求，并且与其防止因接触危险材料而造成工作相关伤害的使命相一致。拟议的 STTR 项目通过利用一种称为即时培训 (JITT) 的新培训范式来解决 SSP 培训的不足，这种培训范式是通过远程学习和蜂窝电话的进步而实现的。 BanDeMar Networks 和新泽西医学和牙科大学 (UMDNJ) - 公共卫生学院 (SPH) 提议为被呼叫处理紧急事件的 SSP 开发一个 JITT 系统，该系统将在他们的手机上提供安全的信息访问和针对事件的简短（<5 分钟）学习模块，内容涉及所涉及的危险物质、所需的个人防护装备以及危险物质的一般净化程序。学习模块将为手机用户界面设计，并包含音频、视频、交互式模拟、图形、动画和评估。第一阶段将研究 JITT 系统的可行性，该系统可与所有无线服务提供商的大多数当前手机一起运行，并与事件管理系统集成。第一阶段还将研究此类无线点播信息和学习模块的教学设计。第一阶段将开发原型学习模块和无线功能，以支持 60 名参与应急响应操作和/或参加 UMDNJ-SPH 危险材料课程的人员进行现场测试。将进行书面调查和个人访谈，以评估拟议的 JITT 系统信息输入人体工程学、身份验证和培训人体工程学以及无线流媒体内容的质量。 JITT 系统将有助于降低应对紧急事件的 SSP 受伤和患病的潜在风险。 JITT 系统在为公共卫生领域的其他培训需求提供 JITT 方面也具有巨大潜力。
