摘要: |
This report describes a process for evaluating the capability of simulators to support performance-based assessment of mariner proficiencies. The step-by-step approach produces an evaluation protocol for examining the following capabilities of a subject simulator: to provide flexible exercise programming to the assessor; to replicate the characteristics of actual equipment; to simulate the operational conditions required to demonstrate the desired performance; and to support thorough debriefing of the assessment candidate. The general method is illustrated with a case study, examining the capability of two PC based simulators to support the assessment of mariner performance in Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA) operation. The approach can be generalized to the evaluation of simulators of other marine equipment and of equipment in other industries, and to the evaluation of simulators for training. The method is compliant with the requirements of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Seafarers' Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) code and with the best practices of Instructional Systems Development (ISD). |
