Simulation technologies of virtual reality usage in the training of future ship navigators

Abstract

<jats:p>Research goal: the research is aimed at the theoretical substantiation of the application of virtual reality technology simulators and their features in higher maritime educational institutions. Research objectives: to determine the role and place of simulation technology in the educational process in the training of future ship navigators in order to form the professional competence of navigation. Object of research: professional training of future ship navigators in higher maritime educational institutions. Subject of research: simulation technologies of virtual reality as a component of the educational process at higher educational maritime establishments. Research methods used: theoretical methods containing the analysis of scientific sources; empirical methods involving study and observation of the educational process. Research results: the analysis of scientific publications allows to define the concept of virtual reality simulators, their application in the training of future navigators, their use for assessing the acquired professional competence of navigation. Main conclusions: introduction of simulation technologies of virtual reality in the educational process in higher maritime educational institutions increases the efficiency of education, promotes the development of professional thinking of students, enhances the quality of professional competence development.</jats:p>

9th Workshop on Cloud Technologies in Education: Report

“…This article highlights further research by the authors, begun in [39,111,247,248]. The article "Clouds of words as a didactic tool in literary education of primary school children" [139] by Liudmyla L. Nezhyva (figure 27), Svitlana P. Palamar, Maiia V. Marienko reveals the possibilities of using the words' cloud in the literary education of primary school children.…”

Formation of professional competency in life saving appliances operation of future seafarers by means of online and simulation VR technologies

“…The use of VR simulators began relatively recently, but has already accumulated significant material for research. Thus, an analysis of the literature on recent experimental data suggests that virtual reality can ensure students' motivation and engagement, and provide higher-quality learning [1,3,8,10,18,22,23,27,28,37,39,43].…”

The Effectiveness of Virtual Reality Technologies to Enhance Learning and Training Experience: During the Covid-19 Pandemic and Beyond

“…The analyses were carried out using the SPSS version 28 software for Windows 10 operating system. The survey covered usefulness (Davis, 1993), ease of use (Davis, 1989), functionality, efficacy, satisfaction, outcomes, and future usage (Hudson et al, 2019;Lvov & Popova, 2019;Merchant et al, 2014;Yilei Huang et al, 2019). The user's performance level can be measured by usefulness and ease of use, VR effectiveness and functionality of user's perception (Marsh, 1999), and satisfaction contents (Kim & Ko, 2019).…”
