Training Work Modules

Manuals Hard Copies

IETM

Evolution of Documentation in Defence

Before — Hardcopies and PDFs in DVDs (Upto 2015)

What is the meaning of the IETM?

Manual: Manual means any literature organized or written in a prescribed manner to guide the user.

TechnicalManual: This means the literature is technical, like user manuals, maintenance manuals etc. Hard copy

Electronic Technical Manual: This means the manual is available in the form of an electronic version which simply means digital format or softcopy. It can be a PDF file or a database-driven software application.

Interactive Electronic Technical Manual:

Let us first understand the meaning of Interactive. The meaning of interactive is two people or things influencing each other.

Allowing a two-way flow of information between an electronic device /computer and a user; responding to a user’s input.

Involving the actions or input of a user. Especially

It means when the Electronic User manuals Interact and respond with the user, that is you, it will become an Interactive Electronic Technical manual.

User wise bookmarks

The documents and pages are many hence, for easy and fast accessibility complete content is converted and stored as a database.

Whenever the user wants some information, IETM software produces the information in a fraction of a second.

Use or Purpose of the IETM?

The purpose of the Manual is to give information related to the equipment to the end user for quick reference.

All the technicality is written in detail so that when an issue arises, the user can refer to the manual, as every time OEM or technical person or subject matter expert might not be available on the spot to resolve the issue.

If the manual has 10 pages users can refer easily.

But any system used by the defence will have multiple manuals and thousands of page counts and many times a user has to cross-refer between manuals, intra-manual and inter-manual to resolve the issue.

Referring to 10- 15 hard-copy or even soft-copy books simultaneously will be difficult and time-consuming.

How to access the IETM ?

IETM is a web-based application like our bank software or any other web application. The graphic user interface will be provided to use IETM through which users can interact and get the desired data.

Like all other standard software, Unauthorized users cannot access the IETM. IETM is a Login - login-based application. Only users having valid Login credentials can access the software.

Based on the user log credentials data will be provided to the user.

IETM has 2 types of Users and one Administrator

Maintainer

Operator

If the operator logs in, the user gets all the content related to operator use, similarly if the maintainer logs in only maintenance-related content is visible for that user.

Ideally, all the content is available for both users, because the purpose of the IETM is to refer to the manual to fix the issue.

Administrators can create users who can see the user’s navigation and log-in history and interact with the users using user dashboards through Annotations.

What Inputs are Needed? (From OEM to Create IETM)

All the softcopies of user manuals to be converted to IETM.

All images Videos, and drawings to be integrated into IETM.

Subject matter expert to resolve technical clarifications

Table of contents/tree structure.

Minimum Hardware Requirements?

NO High-end hardware or servers are required to run IETM.

However, if more concurrent users, then a good configuration server with good LAN connectivity must be ensured.

i3 with 8 GB RAM systems is the minimum configuration required for the server or for Node.

Deliverables

BASED DB (Manuals are covered in the Database)

IETM VIEWER Software

User Manual and Installation Manual

Standards — compliance

Costing of IETM: (Interactive Electronic Technical Manual)

Level of IETM, is it Level 3 or Level 4

Cost will be based on the number of pages that are to be converted

The vendor calculates the cost per page. And a fixed cost of IETM viewer software

If you want to create IETM by yourself self then you also need to buy IETM authoring software.

What are these Levels?

Level — 1 is any PDF file

Level — 2 is a PDF file with hyperlinks from the table of contents to the body etc.

Level — 3 is an HTML application. More hyperlinks, simple search, a content tree having log a screen with a hardcoded username and password and supplied in the format of EXE so that Windows can easily open

Level — 4 is Software plus Content/manuals converted as Database

Regarding Level — 5, rest assured, till 2028 it will be Level — 4 only. As of now, there is nothing practically called Level — 5. Few are calling virtual reality and Augmented reality and Artificial intelligence Level — 5.

Pulling data from many user inputs and analyzing and giving results are done in Level — 5. IETM software cannot pull the data from various real-time points as No OEM will give the real-time information to third-party software directly. Yes, if the information is available offline, then that information can be imported into IETM and can be used as a reference.

Tips For Creating Engaging eContent For Your Audience

Technology has redefined learning strategies in recent times. There's a growing demand for flexible digital learning solutions. In response to this evolving need, online educational content has exploded, easily available through multiple avenues.

As an eContent creator, you can't escape this competition. But you can adapt effective eContent design and developmentstrategies to create engaging content and stand out. The essential point is that developing digital content is no longer enough.

You need to design and present your content in such a way that your audience keeps coming back for more. So, how do you do that? Well, read on to discover the key to success.  

Below are 6 actionable tips for creating engaging eContent for your audience.

Create Short And Focused Learning Modules

Keeping your learning modules short and focused is an effective way to score high on engagement.   

Learners have short attention spans, sometimes way shorter than their learning modules. A well-designed learning module won't serve its purpose if it can't hold your audience's attention.

In a traditional classroom, learners have no option but to sit through long lectures and lessons. They may not pay attention, but they can't just leave the class and walk out any time they want to.

But in the digital sphere, learners can do that with a simple click on the close button on their screen. If the content isn't engaging enough, they won't stick there till the end.  

The best thing to do is segment your content into short modules. Ensure that each module is a focused piece that will compel your audience to stay with you until the last.    

Developing short and focused elearning modules has another advantage. It enables your audience to process your shared information before proceeding to the next module.

Bring Storytelling Into The Picture

Stories are a great way to communicate your point of view, explain concepts, and drive engagement, all at the same time. No wonder humans have been following the tradition of storytelling and imparting lessons through stories since ancient times.

Weaving a story to present your eContent can transform your learning module into an interesting session. It can help you to dramatize your content and capture the imagination of your audience.

Good stories enable you to illustrate your point and expand it. They offer the scope to establish a rapport with your audience and keep them hooked to your session. An interesting aspect of story-based learning is that it is effective for all kinds of learners.

What you need to do is create stories wrapped around your content and incorporate them into your learning module. Encourage learners to discuss the concepts expressed in the story and share their opinions and ideas. This will help students retain more of what you teach them. But most of all, it will compel learners to keep coming back to you for more.

Make Use Of Interactive Elements

Interactive content enables you to grab the attention of learners and make learning fun. Your audience will more likely engage with your content if it offers an immersive learning experience.

Learners tend to get bored and distracted easily if your eContent has no scope for interactivity. This is more so when you have a large amount of content to share.

By using interactive elements, you can present voluminous content in an interesting and condensed form. This enables learners to grasp the content easily and connect with the course.

There are several ways to make your eContent interactive and generate interest among learners.

To begin with, you can use templates and tools to incorporate interactive elements in your eContent design and development. Adding illustrations, animations, and videos are also effective approaches.

Including quizzes and reward points at the end of each lesson is another way to engage your audience and prevent them from losing interest in your content.

Explore different techniques to determine which ones work best to make your content interactive.

Having said that, ensure you don't go overboard using interactive elements. 

Diversify Your Content

Every learner is different, and so is their learning style. The same content pattern may not work for everyone. Even if you have great content, your audience can lose interest easily if the content pattern or style doesn't appeal to them.  

Diversifying is the key to keeping things fresh and exciting.  

Having a varied content strategy enables your learners to absorb different things in different styles.

Consider using a mix of traditional and modern content types to hook your audience. Right from videos, images, infographics, and slideshows with voiceovers to animations, podcasts, webinars, and more, explore various styles and make your choice.

Be ready to experiment and determine which learning styles work best for your audience.

Use Active Voice

Writing your content in an active voice may sound like a simple thing to do. But are you aware that engaging your audience is an effective strategy?  

Active voice can help you to present a boring piece as something quite interesting. When you use active voice for your content, you get to talk to your audience informally. This helps to grab their attention instantly.

Another advantage is that this voice lets you express your point and emphasize the action. Compared to this, when you use passive voice, you leave it to your audience to interpret the meaning. This can confuse your learners, and they may end up losing interest in what you have to say.  

Active voice also helps you to sound like an expert on the subject matter you are dealing with. It enables you to build anticipation about your content, which enhances engagement.

So, present your content in an active voice to make it more impactful

Infuse Humor

Adding humor to your content can go a long way to attracting your audience's attention and increasing their interest.

When you start your content with a dose of humor, you help create a positive learning environment. Humorous elements integrated into your content makes it more enjoyable for your learners. They begin to feel relaxed and become more receptive to what you are teaching them.

One big advantage of humor is that it enables you to explain even dry content without losing your learners' interest.

Apart from eliciting a positive reaction from your learners, humor also contributes to building a meaningful relationship with them.

Try using different strategies to add a humorous touch to your content, such as anecdotes, jokes, funny quotations, GIFs, etc.

One thing to note is that the humor must be positive, non-aggressive, and relevant to your content. Also, avoid inappropriate or too much use of humor, or else your audience may consider your content trivial.

The Bottom Line

It takes time and effort to create engaging eContent for your audience. The tips above can give you a good start in this direction. However, if you need more help, you can get in touch with professionals and boost your eContent design and development strategy.
