Abstract
The Army Learning Concept for Training and Education (ALC-TE) 2020-2040 is the latest learning concept that focuses the United States Army’s efforts to develop agile, adaptive, and innovative thinking soldiers and Army civilians. ALC-TE 2020-2040 focused on four themes, which are: optimize individual and collective learning, improve learning infrastructure, improve human capital development, and leverage learning sciences and technology. The purpose of this dissertation in practice qualitative case study was to examine the United States Army leadership perspectives of the United States Army Learning Model (ALM) at the United States Army Military Police School. Ten participants shared their perceptions of the Army Learning Model during semistructured interviews. Additional sources of data came from observations and notes from the interviews. The data were hand-coded and analyzed. Five major themes emerged from the data: (a) perceptions of the ALM (b) student role and responsibilities; (c) instructor role and responsibilities; (d) science and technology; and (e) resources. The study provided a set of recommendations to Army leaders and civilians on how to best implement the Army Learning Model at the USAMPS and in the operational and institutional learning environments.| Keywords: United States Army Learning Concept for Training and Education 2020-2040, United States Army Learning Model, learner-centric, experiential learning model, transformational leadership, United States Army Military Police School
