“…When literature review is carried, it is seen that practices including robotic-coding and electronics components have an important potential to influence the nature of engineering and science education at the each level of education from primary school to university (Mataric, 2004;Alimisis, 2013). At many schools on the world, robotics and coding are included at education programs and taught to students at their early age (Ospennikova, Ershov & Iljin, 2015;Ronsivalle, Boldi, Gusella, Inama & Carta, 2019). At this scope, targets regarding robotic coding in our country are added to recent programs (Sayın & Seferoğlu, 2016).…”

In this study, it was aimed to determine the extracurricular practices in the school related to robotics, coding and electronics and to determine the view of teachers about these practices. Within the context of this study, the data were collected from teachers or administrators from 52 public schools in Avcılar district of Istanbul province, using an online interview form. Descriptive analysis, one of the qualitative data analysis methods, was used to examine the data obtained from the study. Obtained results were analyzed within the framework of the determination of current status, the determination of schools' requirements, future plans of schools and the contribution of robotics-coding and electronic applications to education. In addition, teachers stated that such practices improve students' high-level skills and increase interest and awareness towards the school.

“…Although these negative points regarding simulator use are supported by evidence, simulators could boost the confidence in maritime organizations. Thus, we argue that simulators are powerful tools to reduce the risk of otherwise high-risk tasks and can provide business value to the industry as they do in other fields, such as driver training (Burnett et al 2017;Parkes and Reed 2017), flight training (Huddlestone and Harris 2017), nuclear power plant training (IAEA 2004), clinical training (Shahriari-Rad et al 2017), and various education programs, such as dental medicine (Sabalic and Schoener 2017), environmental studies (Fokides and Chachlaki 2020), and educational robotics (Ronsivalle et al 2019). Even in the aviation industry, simulator training is set up for continuously improving the awareness of pilots in safety critical scenarios (Roth and Jornet 2015).…”

Making Sense of Maritime Simulators Use: A Multiple Case Study in Norway

2020

This paper reports a multiple case study of a training center collaboration with three offshore companies and a coastline authority. Through a qualitative inquiry, we utilized the actor-network theory to analyze the common understanding of simulator use in these organizations. The paper argues that the simulator itself is an actor that can integrate shared interests with other actors to establish an actor-network. Such an actor-network expands simulator use beyond purely training purposes. It advocates that the simulator is a medium between maritime academia and industry and aligns it with the same actor-network to facilitate the process of "meaning construction." Such a meaning construction process offers simulator-based training with a valuable definition of the learning outcomes. It helps clarifying who will gain the benefits from simulator use in the future, as well as when and on what basis. The paper also reflects on the benefits and limitations of utilizing a multiple case study in the maritime domain.
