Optimization of training time for self-conducting classes by cadet managers using a computer program in everyday activities

The paper describes the process of training sessions, where cadets-leaders are trained to independently teach military personnel general military regulations with an emphasis on the procedure for monitoring training time. Observations of military personnel conducted by the authors during the training showed that the issue of monitoring the methodological parts and the breaks between the hours of the class makes it necessary to distract the attention of military personnel from training with a certain frequency. Moreover, the switching of attention occurs among the cadet-head and the duty officer for the training group. The authors propose to solve this problem by automating the control of the chronology of the lesson through the use of computer technologies. As a result, a computer program was developed; it performs operations of monitoring training time in automatic mode and, if necessary, visualizes its timing. Testing of the developed program for military personnel training in the course of daily activities confirmed the hypothesis of the study and showed that after a period of cadets’ adaptation to the automation of training time control, its optimization is achieved due to a more complete concentration of students on the training process.
