Abstract

Simulation components are increasingly becoming more dominant in the maritime

training curricula for developing competent shipboard professionals and hence the MET

institutions are continuously striving to improve the effectiveness of simulation-based

teaching and learning. At the Singapore Maritime Academy, we are undertaking a case

study, where computer-mediated semantic map approach is used to develop Resource-

based Advanced Learning Organizers (RALOs) to support simulation-based learning.

RALOs provide a visual description of simulation tasks and spatial resources in many

layers representing hierarchies of knowledge and comprise many Learning Objects (LO:

Hodgkin, 2004), which are self-contained sources of documents, graphics, videos,

quizzes for self assessment and also other RALOs at lower levels. These combinationsof RALOs and LOs will constitute a knowledge-base, which form the support structure

for simulation-based learning. The knowledge based artefacts developed will also be

evaluated at the World Maritime University by well-experienced MET lecturers from a

number of countries whose feed back and suggestions will be used to further improve

the e-artefacts developed in the project.

1. Introduction

Simulation-based training is being increasingly used at the Singapore Maritime

Academy (SMA) to increase the percentage of skill-components in the maritime

curricula. To improve the effectiveness of simulation-based learning exposures of thestudents we are undertaking a case study, where computer-mediated Resource-based

Advanced Learning Organizers (RALOs: Ausubel,1960) are being created to support

simulation-based learning. The RALOs are based on student activities resulting in

development of reusable learning objects (Hodgins, 2002). Learning objects are small,self-contained entities, with their own objectives, activities and assessments.

The application domain selected is LNG transportation industry, which uses LNG boil-

off gas to fire propulsion boilers for a steam propulsion plant. Human resource in this

sector is in short supply as the todays marine engineers are mainly trained on diesel

engines. Hence, there is an acute need to convert management level diesel engineers

with ample diesel propulsion proficiency to steam propulsion engineers with additionalexpertise of LNG gas handling in steam boilers and of operating the steam propulsion

plant. A Steam Propulsion Simulator from MPRI Ship Analytic1 is used to train steam

engineering to engineers, who are management level shipboard engineers with

certification on motor-ships. Using this course as a case study, the plan is to develop an

ergonomic supporting environment for the MPRI Ship Analytic Simulator. This new

learning environment is expected to provide a good level of support through the,

o creation of RALOs to facilitate personalised learning

o use of RALOs to enhance assimilation

o

use of automated formative assessment to scaffold learningo constructivist social learning, which is meant to promote teamwork

o use of inquiry-based and exploratory learning, which should help to synthesize

knowledge

The paper is organised in the following sections:

o Section 2 narrates the semantic map approach, which provides the rationale

for the development of the exploratory learning environment.

o Section 3 describes the resource-based support for training on the steam

propulsion simulator.

o Section 4 relates the computer-mediated assessments to scaffold learning.

o Section 5 provides the feedback from the last cohort.

o Section 6 draws conclusions and provides the future plans for the project.

2. Hyper Semantic Map Approach to Provide Exploratory Learning

Hypermedia provides an effective activity environment, where users can acquire

knowledge by exploring the hyperspace in their own way. Still, users often tendto "get lost'' in the hyperspace. To improve such undesirable effects on users,

many researchers have been working to construct hypermedia systems whichcan identify the user's interests, preferences and needs, and give some

appropriate advice to the students during the exploring activity process.(Kayama et al. 2001)

To provide support in a large domain of knowledge for learners a semantic map

approach is suggested by Kayama et al. (2001). Taking a similar approach, the purpose

of this study is to develop a framework of semantic maps, with embedded resources to

support learners in developing skills on a Steam Propulsion Simulator. Development of

semantic maps was carried out using CmapTools from IHMC

2

. As these semantic maps provided access nodes for resources, we named them as Resource-based Advanced

Learning Organizers or RALOs.

Figure 1 shows the deconstruction of a major task of activating an LNG tanker from the

dry dock to full-away conditions using a RALO. Here the RALO splits the task of

starting up of the steam plant into a combination of smaller tasks. Thus a RALO has the

purpose of visualizing the overall sequential tasks at-hand and also providing interface

for accessing resources via this visual organiser.

The RALOs have nodes (in Fig.1 these are exercises on the MPRI simulator), which

have resources (e.g. texts, graphics, videos or more RALOs at lower levels) forexploration by the learner. These nodes are learning objects (LOs: see Figure 2), which

are self-contained artefacts complete with knowledge resource and e-assessment

components.

It is expected that as the learners go through these sequential tasks and access the

resources, they would pick up the essential knowledge and proficiency required for the

task at-hand. They will also be able to assess themselves using the built-in e-assessment

components.

Nodes in a RALO function as learning objects (Hodgins, 2002). Learning objects (LOs)

have been defined in various ways (Bannan-Ritland et al., 2000; Wiley, 2000; Hodgins,2002; Lezama, 2006) and is now seen as a topical issue in teaching and learning.

Learning objects provide a development platform, which lends itself to flexible usage in

course building. With the availability of ample digital resources, learners could be led

through constructivist ways to deconstruct knowledge resources and reconstruct the

same to suit their individual learning needs.

Although the LOs are developed to meet the requirements of a specific course, being

self-contained in nature, they are reusable in other courses if the courses share similar

objectives.

Figure 2 Learning Objects - Main features & Advantages


5/15

In the case study at the Singapore Maritime Academy, LOs were put together by the

learners themselves as Bannan-Ritland (2000) and Gibbons (2002) suggest that if the

learner acquires an authors role during LO generation, learning will be more significant

and the learning object will turn into a fundamental element of the learning process in

virtual environments.

The main features of learning objects and their advantages for different groups of users

are shown in Figure 2 (Lezama, 2006). Benefits of reusability of these LOs are already

being realized in SMA as the LOs are being re-used in other courses with similar

objectives. CmapTools has an in-built search engine and scope for meta-tag definitions.

Hence, if the LOs are well-defined with meta-tags, locating the LOs should not pose

much of a problem. Granularity is expected to increase with each cohort as the learners

will progressively develop more LOs at lower levels. CmapTools lends itself easily for

scalability as the LOs could be arranged in various groups at different levels.

The LOs made with CmapTools can be attached with various resources. Resource-based

learning (RBL) is another topical issue in education (Bell & Lefoe, 1998; Hill, &Hannafin, 2001). RBL and its implications in teaching and learning, as implemented in

the case study, are discussed in the next section.

3. Resource-based Support for Training on the Steam Propulsion Simulator

Knowledge and related information has to be structured in a way that it can be

accessed easily. Visualization tools may assist students in visualizing their

knowledge, as well as providing access to knowledge elements and task-relevantknowledge resources. Most existing tools focus on the visualization of

knowledge or information only. It is claimed that concept mapping may functionas a bridging technology. The contribution draws attention to digital concept

maps as cognitive tools which may provide a basis for the development ofsynergistic approaches that may help visualizing, accessing, and managing both

subject-matter domain knowledge and information and foster resource-based

learning. (Tergan et al., 2006)

Strategies for flexible learning should include effective organisation and representation

of knowledge. Localisation of knowledge using concept mapping tools can provide

resources for self-regulated resource-based learning (Tergan and Haller, 2003).

Concept mapping tools support situational relevance on spatial representations, which

could breakdown complex learning tasks into manageable learning objects, with their

own resources. Graphical representations in concept maps enhance cognitive process of

managing knowledge and information in resource-based learning and problem solving

environments (Cox, 1999).

In self-regulated learning, availability of increasing volume of digital information many

times leads to cognitive overload. Additionally, conceptual and navigational

disorientation is common among learners while surfing the Internet for making sense in

an un-familiarised domain (Tergan et al., 2006). Concept maps used in the case study provide localized resources and thus address the problem well. Advance learning


6/15

organisers based on concept maps provide spatial resources and thereby support

individual knowledge management. An example of resources in the concept map,

generated in the case study is shown in the Figure 3.

Figure 3. Resources for Safety Devices - doc file, ppt file and LOs at a Lower Level

According to Boechler & Dawson (2002), concept maps could become useful in helping

individual in his search for knowledge and knowledge resource. In this sense visual

search in computer-based knowledge maps resembles map-based navigation inhypertext environments. In addition to visual search most computer-based mapping

tools provide functions for content search, thus providing automatic access to pre-

specified knowledge elements (Tergan, 2003).

Considering that a learning system is not complete without a fitting assessment

arrangement, we spent considerable resources to develop on-demand online assessments

for the LOs, which were developed during the case study. The next section provides

some details of this assessment system, which was created using ExamView suite3 from

FSCreations.

4. Computer-mediated Assessments to Scaffold Learning

Assessment practices shape, possibly more than any other factor, what is taught

and how it is taught in schools. At the same time, these assessment practicesserve as the focus (perhaps the only focus in this day and age) for a shared

societal debate about what we, as a society, think are the core purposes andvalues of education. If we wish to create an education system that reflects and

contributes to the development of our changing world, then we need to ask how

we might change assessment practices to achieve this. (Ridgeway et al., 2006)

7/15

There is evidence that todays educational requirements call for higher order thinking.

However, it is also claimed that there is a constant danger that assessment systems are

driven in undesirable ways, where things that are easy to measure are valued more

highly than things that are more important to learn but harder to assess (Ridgeway et al.,

2006).

Computer-mediation can help provide on-demand online tests with immediate feedback.

In the case study for LOs, there were specific on-demand online tests. The Figure 4

shows the process of developing an online network-based objective type of question.

The software suite ExamView is suitable for both non-numeric and numeric online

questions. Assessments were arranged in formative mode with low stakes, which means,

the learners were encouraged to attempt these assessment even when they were unsure

of the solutions. The immediate feedback from the server provided the grade achieved,

the right answer and its rationale. Hence, the assessment system served somewhat like

Skinners teaching machine, used so successfully in programmed learning4.

Figure 4 Assessment Development using ExamView Suite

The association between teaching, learning and assessment (see Figure 5) is well

explained by Pellegrino et al. (2001). They distinguish three components of the

curriculum: the intended curriculum (set out in policy statements), the implemented

curriculum (which can only be known by studying classroom practices) and the attained

curriculum (which is what students can do at the end of a course of study). The linksbetween these three aspects of the curriculum are not really clear. Hence, according to

Ridgeway et al. (2006), the assessment system tests and scoring guides - provides a

far clearer definition of what is to be learned than does any verbal description (and

perhaps provides the only clear definition), and so is a better basis for curriculum

planning at classroom level than are grand statements of educational ambitions.

Figure 5 Close Association between Learning & Assessment

[ Adapted from Pellegrino, Chudowski, and Glaser, 2001]

The learners were given 10 to 12 online formative assessments per week to self-evaluate

their progress. At the end of the course, there was also an online summative assessment,

which was served to establish the grade of the learner and was also used by MaritimePort Authority of Singapore to issue the required certification in steam engineering

knowledge. The Figure 6 shows some of the formative assessment on the server and a

part of one assignment.

Figure 6 Formative Assessment and Scores on Server

As all the details of student performances are recorded, the difficulties in understanding

of a part of the content are immediately highlighted and necessary actions could be

taken by the facilitator. The digital assessment and scores were recorded in the server

and creates a good transparent means of developing student portfolios (ExamView has

built-in facility for generating student progress report). The student portfolios will


9/15

provide the potential employers a clear picture of the course coverage and also all stake

holders could provide feedback on coverage, thereby allowing the provision for critical

evaluation of course content and progressive improvement of the course structure.

Learner feedback was also made a part of the server-based process and these are

discussed in the following section.

5. Feedback from the Last Cohort

The learner expectations based on his past learning experiences in a learning situation

could pose difficulties in accepting new ways learning (Fidishun, D. 2000). Quoting

Fidishun, adults resent and resist situations in which they feel others are imposing their

wills on them. In the case study, we were dealing with senior engineers, who already

had substantial experience of post-secondary education and therefore had distinct

expectations about the way a course should be delivered and run. So, to sell a totally

new way of learning was indeed a challenge for the course facilitator. Even the

classroom arrangement (see Figure 7 below) was very different from the conventional

ways of learning in a classroom.

student-centred classroom arrangement with amplescope for 1) computer-mediated interaction with content

& 2) team work.

However, the feedback received was generally positive and would encourage us to

pursue this new way of computer-mediated learning for maritime education at the SMA.

The following table summarizes the feedback received from the 10 mature students in

Table I. Feedback to Improve Learning

From above that, it can be said that this new way of learning was acceptable to thismature group of students. However, at the beginning of the module a few of the students

were worried about the adequacy of their computer knowledge. It was also found that

the younger learners were more comfortable in using CmapTools and ExamView

software. Hence, their contributions to the knowledgebase were more than the older

members of the cohort.

A number of learners expressed comments on the use on the same computers, which

provided both simulation of the steam plant and supporting knowledge-base. This

actually meant that they had to put the simulator on hold while checking on theknowledge-base. Additionally, some complained about the missing links as the

knowledge-base was still being developed.


12/15

In the next concluding section, we discuss our next steps in the development work,

which is being planned at the World Maritime University campus in Malm, Sweden.

The work will be carried out by the SMA team under the guidance of Professor Takeshi

Nakazawa of WMU.

6. Conclusion and Future Planning

The paper described a case study undertaken at the SMA and supported by WMU to

develop a more effective learning environment for simulation-based training of

maritime officers. The experience gained in using a new model of learning based on

development of learning objects, resource-based learning and integrated, on-demand,

online assessments were also described .

Feedback received from the last cohort points to the inadequacy of the learning

environment as the same computers were used for both simulation and knowledge-base

support. We are planning to separate these two systems and expect to provide different

networks for the interactive learning system and the simulation system. The proposed

environment is shown in the Figure 8, where a computer is shown on the right-hand side

of the figure, which will form a part of a new knowledgebase server network. This new

arrangement will make RALOs accessible at all times without interruption of

simulation. Formative assessments will also be made available using the knowledge-

base server.

Figure 8 A Separate Network for RALOs & e-Assessments

A group of final-year marine engineering students from SMA will be working on this

aspect of the project to upgrade the course content and to try out these new scenarios

under the supervision of the authors at the World Maritime University, Malm, Sweden.

Also, the opportunity would be taken to get an evaluation of the simulation-based

learning environment by the international maritime lecturers, who are available atWMU.
