Abstract
LTS (Lincoln Training System) is an automated training system that has been designed to meet the need for individualized, selfpaced learning outside of as well as within a conventional classroom environment. The system employs microfiche as the basic medium for storing and distributing instructional material. A solid-state electrooptical reader has been developed to permit storage of audio and branching logic on the fiche along with the usual high quality visual material. The concept in the form of a system (LTS-3) has been successfully tested in the electronics training program at Keesler Air Force Base. The results show a 37 percent reduction in training time, which implies a large cost savings.
