Malaysia is considered one of the developing countries undergoing rapid economic development over the past five decades. As a developing country with a rapidly growing population, providing the citizens with comprehensive and updated knowledge is crucial for the country, particularly in vocational training. A number of vocational and technical training have been developed. However, the success of vocational education relies on the capability of instructors or teacher’s approach to achieve the goals. It is important to create appropriate method that take into consideration their students’ learning styles to get better outcome. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to develop vocational learning styles instrument. Empirical evidence on the validity and reliability of modified items has been done. A survey of 57 Electrical Technology students were distributed. The Rasch measurement model was used to examine the functional items and detect the item and respondent reliability and index separation, the polarity of item, measuring the fit of item in measuring the construct and standardised residual correlation values.

Since 1969, the Technical Training Division of the Air Force Human Resources Laboratory (AFHRL) has been engaged in planning and developing a design philosophy and development approach for the Air Force Advanced Instructional System (AIS). The AIS is a proposed computer-based multimedia system for the administration and management of individualized technical training on a large scale. The system is scheduled for installation and demonstration at Lowry Air Force Base. The initial version will provide day-to-day training in three selected courses for approximately 2000 students and will also provide a training research facility to allow systematic evaluations of innovations in instructional technology. The purpose of this presentation is to trace the evolutionary process which led to the current design and development approach to the AIS. The objectives and findings of some preliminary studies will be discussed and the current functional system configuration will be described.
