  • Virtual Reality in Higher Education: a Case Study at the Air University’S Squadron Officer College
    Virtual Reality in Higher Education: A Case Study at The Air University’s Squadron Officer College by Tony Millican A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 7, 2017 Keywords: opportunities for virtual reality in education, challenges of virtual reality in education, virtual reality educational applications, stakeholder involvement in curriculum design Copyright 2017 by Tony Millican Approved by Fran Kochan, Co-Chair, Professor Emerita, Educ. Found., Leadership, and Technology Jung Won Hur, Co-Chair, Associate Professor, Educ. Found., Leadership and Technology Ellen Reames, Associate Professor, Educ. Found., Leadership and Technology Linda Searby, Associate Professor, Educ. Found., Leadership and Technology Filomeno Arenas, Associate Professor, Leadership and Communications, Air University Air Command and Staff College & Squadron Officer College Abstract For decades, constructivist educational theorists such as Dewey, Piaget, Vygotsky, Papert, and Bruner have advocated that for deep learning to occur, learners should have some type of experience related to the subject matter to be learned. A new generation of consumer technology – referred to by titles such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality, and Immersive Technology – offers the ability to use pre-determined “first-person experiences” as a tool for educational outcomes. The investigator in this study examined the efforts of the US Air Force Air University’s Squadron Officer College (SOC) in a quest to evaluate VR as a learning tool in the Professional Military Education (PME) sector of Higher Education. The researcher considered four questions related to the challenges, strategies to overcome challenges, opportunities, and practical applications for integrating Virtual Reality as a learning tool in the SOC education program.

    WASHINGTON ICBM CONTRACTORS (ICons) GROUP 12 July 2020 Jul: TBD 1 ADMINISTRATION/PROGRAM SPECIFICS Black Airmen Talk Race in the Air Force Air Force Magazine, 2 July 20 Rachel S. Cohen Lt. Gen. Anthony J. Cotton is tired of being tired. Cotton, the first Black three-star deputy commander of Air Force Global Strike Command, has seen police lights flash in his rearview mirror, has needed to convince people he was a wing commander, and has been told not to park in his own spot among spaces reserved for base leadership. He has explained to others, over and over, what it’s like to be Black in America. He wants people to listen. He wants them to get uncomfortable. He wants them to act. “Here I am as a lieutenant general in the United States Air Force, but … I have a common bond,” he says. “When I see what happened to Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Rayshard Brooks—and the list goes on and on—it’s visceral to me,” he said, running through the recent history of Black Americans killed. “That could be my son. That could be my daughter. That could be me.” As civil unrest swept the nation following the death of George Floyd in May, a Black man who died after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes, Black Airmen are wrestling with their own reality in an Air Force that still suffers from its own racial blind spots and systemic discrimination. A dozen Black Airmen—including current and former officers, enlisted members, and civilians—shared their experience with Air Force Magazine in June, describing how race has influenced their lives and careers, and how the Air Force still needs to evolve.

THE ORDER OF DAEDALIANS was organized on March 26, 1934, by a representative group of American World War I pilots to perpetuate the spirit of pa- triotism, the love of country, and the high ideals of sacrifice which place service to nation above personal safety or position. The Order is dedicated to: insuring that America will always be preeminent in air and space—the encouragement of flight safety—fostering an esprit de corps in the military air forces—promoting the adoption of military service as a career—and aiding deserving young individuals in specialized higher education through the establishment of scholarships. THE DAEDALIAN FOUNDATION was incorporated in 1959 as a nonprofit organization to carry on activities in furtherance of the ideals and purposes of the Order. The Foundation publishes the Daedalus Flyer and sponsors the Daedalian Scholarship Program.

It adds chapter 5 on the Base Realign- ment and Closure Commission, 2005, and chapter 6 on the Joint Basing Initiative. The original Preface is continued below Over the past twelve years, the base infrastructure of the United States Air Force (USAF) has shrunk rapidly to accommodate force downsizing engendered by the ending of the Cold War. Still more radical changes are necessary to efficiently sup- port the agile forces required to wage the “Global War on Terrorism.” Historically, the ebb, flow, and utilization of Air Force installations are interconnected to changes in the size, composition, and capabilities of major flying and nonflying organizations. As a result, the number of USAF installations has fluctuated accord- ing to the complex interaction of the perceived global threat, technology, strategy, tactics, and projected force structure. This study describes military, technical, eco- nomic, and political reasoning that has influenced the location, or basing, of major flying and nonflying units in the continental United States, excluding Alaska, between 1907 and 2003.
