It summarizes the highlights of the course, discusses student reaction, and proposes solutions to problems encountered with this running. The report was STATepared by who organized the seminar STATth assistance fron While this latest running went well, we will be taking a hard look at the seminar's content, length, and tradi- tional speakers during September. The review will try to determine what adjustments are needed to make the program more responsive to the needs of' the career service and to ensure that no problems will be encountered in identifying students or a suitable classroom for the December running. With a well-planned running in December, we will be in a better position to determine if we want to increase the number of runnings or the length of the program. I will keep_vou posted.

A small group of eleven students participated in the program; their names are shown in the attached at Tab A. Four students were from DDO, five from OIS, and two from other offices within the DDA. One 25X1 student cancelled due to a conflict with other training day. The seminar was held in Room 906, Chamber of classroom with limited audio-visual facilities. scheduled on Commerce Building, the same a small the ,25X1 served as his assistant, nevertheless course coordinator, ?and iho were able to conduct the seminar in a highly professional manner. Six guest speakers participated in the program, as shown in the course 25X1 outline attached at Tab B: 25X1 Photography Branch, P&PD; of Plans, Programs and Systems Staff, 25X1 replaced the P&PD; who who is listed in 25X1 schedule) of Microform Processing Branch, OCR; and OIS Micrographics Officer emeritus. All the speakers did a commendable job, but 25X1 the students seemed to particularly appreciate presentation on 25X1 computer output microfiche on ADSTAR. andpresentation 25X1 presentation was also well received because it included slides that made the viewers feel they were being given a guided tour of the Photography Branch. wycLA-115/6.1) s6/0A-70-7--rD rez tim A-rrA-1i-1 hi Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/10/11: CIA-RDP10T01930R000100010010-7 Declassified in Part- Sanitized Copy Approved forRelease2012/10/11 : CIA-RDP10T01930R000100010010-7 UUNHDLN HAL The student critiques, attached at Tab C, are more complete than usual because the students were informed that OIS needed constructive comments in order to enrich the program. Most of the comments were favorable and showed that the students had gained some useful information from the course. Several students, however, indicated that the speakers did not speak loudly enough. (The lack of a public address system in the classroom, as well as noise from the air conditioner, contributed to this problem). Each speaker has been given a copy of the critiques, which should help in preparing for the next seminar scheduled in December 1983. The two main problems experienced in running the seminar were the small class size and the limited classroom facilities. As discussed during a pre-course meeting between the course coordinator and the Director and Deputy Director of Information Services, one reason for the small number of students was a lack of communication between the coordinator and the OIS training officer prior to the course. To avoid this problem with future seminars, the course coordinator has begun working with the training officer to identify MI careerists requiring micrographics training, and to generate more publicity about the course. In addition, OTE will be requested to provide a better classroom well in advance of future runnings, even if this may require some seminar dates to be changed. To ensure that the scheduled 7 December 1983 seminar runs smoothly, a meeting with all speakers will be held on 16 September 1983 to discuss material to be covered in the presentations and to update graphic aids as required. In addition, a brief test or problem-solving exercise covering key terms and systems will be developed to conclude the course, so there will be more learning through increased student involvement.
