Once the knowledge and skills for a specific task have been identified, the next step is to determine the most efficient method for an Airman to learn them. Classroom lectures, e-learning, and videos take time and money to prepare. They also require an investment in time for Airmen to attend. However, this investment in time for preparation an attendance does not always translate to better learning. Such training can be boring and even outdated since it takes significant effort to update. 1Huddle uses gaming technology that 412th SFS or other training squadrons can use to create training in just 10 minutes. The 412th SFS is using a 120-page study guide that Airmen are to read through on their own before testing to move up to their next duty station. 1Huddles AI game platform can easily ingest the 120-page study guide and turn it into quick, two-minute burst games for Airmen to play. Not only is it fast to develop the training, but the method of delivery is extremely efficient. It engages the mind of the learner so that the knowledge is quickly and effectively retained. 1Huddles approach has two key differentiators from traditional learning management systems (LMS). The first differentiator is the technical design that allows authorized training or squadron personnel to create a game in approximately 10 minutes containing the desired training objective and enablers. Second is that the technology is engaging, fast, fun, and contains no fluff. For the new generation of millennials coming into the Air Force, many who have spent 10,000 hours or more gaming, it is a natural learning environment, The return on investment (ROI) is several fold; savings in time and money to create effective training, less time spent delivering the training, and extremely high retention of the information delivered. The knowledge factors of an entire curriculum can be delivered by creating a game library.
