LTP Numerical Designation Example H 3 2 Course

LTP Numerical Designation (Example: H 3 -2) Course Title (Example: Honor in Everyday Life)

Training Objective • Task: State a measurable task to be trained – Example: Understand how the honor code affects special orders, leave, rifle counts, all ins, and interactions with guard teams, and how FERPA affects the honor code. • Condition: State the conditions under which the training will be conducted and the task evaluated – Example: Given a block of instruction taught by the company honor rep in a classroom environment followed by role-playing exercises and objective questions • Standard: State the performance required to be successful – Example: Cadets demonstrate behavior consistent with the Honor Code in a role-playing exercise and correctly answer a series of objective questions based on the material presented and the Honor Manual

Factual Information • State all the factual information necessary for cadets to perform the task • Include references as appropriate – Example: • The Honor Code says “a cadet does not lie…” • Lying is defined as “making a false official statement” • An official statement is defined as “a statement…. . ”

Applicability to Cadet Life • Give examples of how this factual information applies to cadet life • For example: – An example of an official statement is the rifle count • CC Form 61 requires the cadet signing the form to verify that he has “witnessed a physical inventory conducted by both the Company Supply Sergeant and Armorer, or specified weekend duty team. ” [By the way, this is not what the current CC Form 61 requires, so this class needs updating. ]

Cadet X and Y Scenario • Illustrate the applicability to cadet life by a real or theoretical Cadet X and Y scenario • Example: – Cadet X is the company armorer. When conducting his inventory he finds Cadet Y and Z’s room locked. He knocks and Cadet Y says “What? , ” but doesn’t open the door. Cadet X asks if Y and Z have their rifles. Cadet Y says “Yes. ” Cadet X marks both rifles as present, finishes the rest of his inventory without incident, and turns in the CC Form 61 to the Arms Room. Are Cadet X’s actions consistent with the requirements of the Honor Code?

Role Playing Scenario • Present another scenario that requires cadets to role play a situation. Provide a general situation on the slide and, if necessary, additional information or prompts on 3 x 5 cards to the role players. • Example: – Cadet X is the company armorer. When conducting his inventory, a room is locked and no one answers when he knocks. Other than this room, his inventory is complete and correct. The CC Form 61 is due to the Arms Room in ten minutes. Cadet X has been written up once already for turning in his report late. Cadet X goes to Cadet Y, the supply sergeant, and asks what he should do.

Applicability to Post-Graduation Life • Give factual information about how this concept applies after graduation • Illustrate this applicability with a video, case study, scenario, or other means.

Applicability to Post-Graduation Life • Example: • People make decisions based on the information you provide them • A platoon is on a movement to contact and the lieutenant is supposed to report crossing each phase line to his company commander • He crosses PLs Red and White on time but is 45 minutes behind the time he is supposed to cross PL Blue • He doesn’t want the CO to be mad and he figures he can make up the time later, so he reports crossing PL Blue on schedule, even though he is still over one kilometer short of it • The CO receives a request to clear a fire mission from an adjacent unit in his sector between PLs White and Blue • Because the CO thinks the platoon has passed PL Blue, he approves the mission • The artillery lands close to the platoon, creating three friendly casualties

Performance Oriented Exercise • Eventually we will move to some systematic certification process, but in the meantime, do some sampling to ensure the cadets have achieved the standard • This can be done by additional role playing or by objective questions such as: – What is the definition of lying? – What is an official statement? – What official statement are you making when you submit a leave request?

AAR • At the end of each lesson, solicit suggestions from the class about how to sustain what was good about the lesson and how to improve what wasn’t • Submit those comments through your chain of command to the Assistant Commandant for Leadership Programs
