In the past, the military intelligence community could rely on indicators
and templates to predict outcomes when faced with a conventional, known enemy.
However, these traditional techniques are of limited use for today's ill-structured and asymmetric warfare.
Stottler Henke developed the Intelligence for Counter-Terrorism (ICT) system that
relies heavily on simulated scenarios for learning and assessment in order to
prepare the military intelligence community for unknown threats.
It employs real-time coaching based on the current context and past history.
It primarily teaches relationship analysis and the use of intelligence analysis
tools such as association matrices, time event charts and link diagrams.
The final objective of each scenario is to use the tools to analyze message
traffic and develop a threat assessment report.
Scenario-based training encourages learners to develop their own problem-solving
model to apply in general ways rather than rely on specific procedures for particular events.
Stottler Henke is also
developed an authoring tool that helps authors create scenarios and vignettes,
and it allows potential retargeting for law enforcement and anti-drug use.
The ICT tutor is SCORM-compliant.
