Rebecca Lynne Towle Strawn
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, The University of Memphis
The purpose of this descriptive, bounded, qualitative single-case study was to explore the experiences of ten training instructors at the School for Family and Morale, Welfare, and Recreation, a civilian training institution of the Army, about their transition to using a new standardized model of curriculum design and delivery. This study used semi-structured interviews supported by document analysis to describe the instructors' experiences learning and fully implementing the Army University Experiential Learning Model (Army U ELM), a specialized experiential learning model adapted from Kolb's (1984) experiential learning theory. The study documents the instructor's experiences learning to use the model and using the model in their current design and delivery. The following research questions framed this study: (1.) How did training instructors gain the new knowledge and skills needed to implement the Army U ELM in their training design and delivery? (2.) How do training instructors describe their experiences of the transition process to using the Army U ELM in curriculum design and delivery? (3.) What are the training instructors' current perceptions of using the Army U ELM in their curriculum design and classroom facilitation work?
