Question 1 10/ 10 pts Critical thinking and creative thinking can be generally associated with the six Taxonomy of Learning categories. When dealing with operational design, planners should strive for creative thinking. Which taxonomy categories are most closely associated with creative thinking? Evaluation and Comprehension Knowledge and Comprehension Application and Analysis
Evaluation and Synthesis This answer is correct. IncorrectQuestion 2 0/10 pts There are numerous constructs directly relevant to operational design, particularly elements of operational design that planners use to help develop the operational approach. Which of the following correctly describes the element of operational design? Lines of operations are the source of power that provides moral or physical strength, freedom of action or will to act. Culmination is reached when the defending force no longer has the capability to go on the counteroffensive or defend successfully. Center of gravity is a contemporary variant that connects actions, tasks, effects and objectives to the end state. Lines of effort define the geographic orientation of a force in relation to the enemy or an objective. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 1, Objective 1. Question 3 10/ 10 pts Both operational art and operational design are important for successful planning. Which of the following best describes either operational design or operational art? Operational art is one of several tools available to help the JFC and staff understand the uncertainty in a complex operational environment. Operational design is the analytical framework that underpins planning. Operational design is the cognitive approach by commanders and staffs to develop strategies, campaigns and operations to employ military forces. Operational art supports a recursive and ongoing dialogue concerning the nature of the problem and an approach to achieve the desired objectives. This answer is correct. Question 4 10/ 10 pts
According to “Army Design Methodology: Commander’s Resource,” what should commanders consider before using design methodology? The commander should consider how to manage their own level of involvement and understand the benefit and risks associated with varying levels of participation. must have already thought enough about the problem to provide course of action guidance at the start of the process. should consider where the activity will take place and all the people that will be involved in the process. must ensure the design team only meets when the commander can be present to ensure they stay on track during the process. This answer is correct. IncorrectQuestion 5 0/10 pts In the design and planning continuum, design deals with problem setting while planning deals with problem solving. Which statement is correct regarding design and planning roles? Design IS a commander-driven process while planning is a commander-driven dialogue. questions assumptions and methods while planning develops products. directs planning, preparation, execution and assessment while planning develops understanding. patterns and templates activity while planning is conceptual and paradigm setting. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 1, Objective 2. IncorrectQuestion 6 0/10 pts Crafting a problem statement is critical to solving the problem. What does the J7 Insights and Best Practices Focus Paper on Design and Planning identify as another characteristic of a well-constructed problem statement? The problem statement should pose solutions to make mission analysis and COA development run more smoothly.

be shelved to help the commander with creativity in completing the COA decision brief. account for current circumstances without trying to predict what future actions may occur. mirror the mission statement because they are conceptually the same. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 1, Objective 2. Question 7 10/ 10 pts According to Lt Col Celestino Perez, Jr.’s article, “A Practical Guide to Design: A Way to Think About It, and a Way to Do It,” what are the four guiding principles of design? Consider taking actions to learn about the environment; have humility and a sense of fallibility; realize the importance of holistic understanding; and think in terms of specific cause-effect relationships. Allow the “solution” to emerge over time from the context: reframe the problem, if necessary; discourage a clashing of opinions or ideas; and realize the importance of holistic understanding. Avoid forcing a solution onto a problem, allow the “solution” to emerge over time from the context,consider taking actions to learn about the environment, and reframe the problem, if necessary. Discourage a clashing of opinions or ideas; consider taking actions to learn about the environment; have humility and a sense of fallibility; and communicate answers in terms of a complex, written narrative. This answer is correct. IncorrectQuestion 8 0/10 pts Harry Yarger describes the strategic environment as always in a greater or lesser state of dynamic instability or chaos, which is characterized by four earmarks (VUCA). Which of the following is NOT an earmark listed by him? Uncertainty Clarity Ambiguity Volatility This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 1, Objective 3.
Question 9 10/ 10 pts In his article, “Errors in Strategic Thinking: Anti-Politics and the Macro Bias,” Celestino Perez, Jr. discusses how politics emerges from a constellation of causal elements. Which of the following is NOT one of the four types of elements that exert causal force on human behavior? Intentionally man-made or institutional elements (rules, policies, strategies) Non-manipulable or structural elements (geography, global economic system) Military or strategic elements (rank structure, political influence) Hard-wired or psychological elements (cognitive processes and biases) This answer is correct. IncorrectQuestion 10 0/10 pts In the Celestino Perez, Jr., article, “Errors in Strategic Thinking: Anti-Politics and the Macro Bias,” he discusses four biases in American strategic thinking. Distinguish the correct bias(es) below. The Macro Bias equates to the military believing their role is to fight wars versus thinking about political outcomes. The Compartmentalization Bias integrates expert perspectives in their analyses, including stakeholders and scholars. All answers are correct. The Levels Bias is a derivative bias relating to the centrality that levels play in thinking about strategy. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 1, Objective 3. Quiz Score: 50 out of 100
