11、development of the maritime industry and has given the highest priority to assisting developing countries in enhancing their maritime training capabilities through the provision or improvement of maritime training facilities at national and regional levels. IMO has also responded to the needs of dev

12、eloping countries for postgraduate training for senior personnel in administrations, ports, shipping companies and maritime training institutes by establishing the world Maritime University in Malm, Sweden, in 1983.Following the adoption of the International Convention on Standards of Training, Cert

13、ification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978 (STCW), a number of IMO Member Governments had suggested that IMO should develop model training courses to assist in the implementation of the Convention and in achieving a more rapid transfer of information and skills regarding new developments in mari

14、time technology. IMO training advisers and consultants also subsequently determined from their visits to training establishments in developing countries that the provision of model courses could help instructors improve the quality of their existing courses and enhance their implementation of the as

15、sociated Conference and IMO Assembly resolutions.In addition, it was appreciated that a comprehensive set of short model courses in various fields of maritime training would supplement the instruction provided by maritime academies and allow administrators and technical specialists already employed

16、in maritime administrations, ports and shipping companies to improve their knowledge and skills in certain specialized fields. With the generous assistance of the Government of Norway, IMO developed model courses in response to these generally identified needs and now keeps them updated through a re

17、gular revision process taking into account any amendments to the requirements prescribed in IMO instruments and any technological developments in the field.These model courses may be used by any training institution and, when the requisite financing is available, the Organization is prepared to assi

18、st developing countries in implementing any course.K.

19、ursesThe purpose of the IMO model courses is to assist maritime training institutes and their teaching staff in organizing and introducing new training courses, or in enhancing, updating or supplementing existing training material where the quality and effectiveness of the training courses may there

20、by be improved.It is not the intention of the model course program to present instructors with a rigid “teaching package” which they are expected to “follow blindly”. Nor is it the intention to substitute audio-visual or “programmed” material for the instructors presence. As in all training endeavou

21、rs, the knowledge, skills and dedication of the instructor are the key components in the transfer of knowledge and skills to those being trained through IMO model course material.Because educational systems and the cultural backgrounds of trainees in maritime subjects vary considerably from country

22、to country, the model course material has been designed to identify the basic entry requirements and trainee target group for each course in universally applicable terms, and to specify clearly the technical content and levels of knowledge and skill necessary to meet the intent of IMO conventions an

23、d related recommendations.n Use of the model courseTo use the model course the instructor should review the course plan and detailed syllabus, taking into account the information provided under the entry standards specified in the course framework. The actual level of knowledge and skills and the pr

24、ior technical education of the trainees should be kept in mind during this review, and any areas within the detailed syllabus which may cause difficulties because of differences between the actual trainee entry level and that assumed by the course designer should be identified. To compensate for suc

25、h differences, the instructor is expected to delete from the course, or reduce the emphasis on, items dealing with knowledge or skills already attained by the trainees. He should also identify any academic knowledge, skills or technical training which they may not have acquired.By analysing the deta

26、iled syllabus and the academic knowledge required to allow training in the technical area to proceed, the instructor can design an appropriate preentry course or, alternatively, insert the elements of academic knowledge required to support the technical training elements concerned at appropriate poi

27、nts within the technical course.Adjustment of the course objectives, scope and content may also be necessary if in your maritime industry the trainees completing the course are to undertake duties which differ from the course objectives specified in the model course.Within the course plan the course

28、 designers have indicated their assessment of the time that should be allotted to each learning area. However, it must be appreciated that these allocations are arbitrary and assume that the trainees have fully met all entry requirements of the course. The instructor should therefore review these as

29、sessments and may need to re-allocate the time required to achieve each specific learning objective.JB-12-63 IMO TA127E - ECDIS (18) - 114pp.indd 1 20/06/2012 10:06OPERATIONAL USE OF ELECTRONIC CHART DISPLAY AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS (ECDIS)2n Lesson PlansHaving adjusted the course content to suit the

30、 trainee intake and any revision of the course objectives, the instructor should draw up lesson plans based on the detailed syllabus. The detailed syllabus contains specific references to the textbooks or teaching material proposed for use in the course. Where no adjustment has been found necessary

31、in the learning objectives of the detailed syllabus, the lesson plans may simply consist of the detailed syllabus with keywords or other reminders added to assist the instructor in making his presentation of the material.n PresentationThe presentation of concepts and methodologies must be repeated i

32、n various ways until the instructor is satisfied that the trainee has attained each specified learning objective. The syllabus is laid out in learning-objective format and each objective specifies what the trainee must be able to do as the learning outcome.n ImplementationFor the course to run smoot

33、hly and to be effective, considerable attention must be paid to the availability and use of:z Properly qualified instructorsz Support staffz Rooms and other spacesz Equipmentz Textbooks, technical papersz Other reference materialThorough preparation is the key to successful implementation of the cou

34、rse. IMO has produced “Guidance on the Implementation of IMO Model Courses,” which deals with this aspect in greater detail and is included as an attachment to this course.JB-12-63 IMO TA127E - ECDIS (18) - 114pp.indd 2 20/06/2012 10:063PART A: COURSE FRAMEWORKPart A: Course Frameworkn ScopeThis mod

35、el course intends to provide the knowledge, skill and understanding of ECDIS and electronic charts to the thorough extent needed to safely navigate vessels whose primary means of navigation is ECDIS. The course emphasizes both the application and learning of ECDIS in a variety of underway contexts.T

36、he course is designed to meet the STCW requirements in the use of ECDIS, as revised by the 2010 Manila Amendments, specifically as these apply to Tables A-II/1, A-II/2 and A-II/3, and also to revised guidelines pertaining to training and assessment in the operational use of ECDIS in Table B-I (parag

37、raphs 36 through 66), assessment in navigational watchkeeping, and evaluation of competence, both in Table B-II.It should be understood that this is a generic course which requires a structured and complementary on-board ship specific ECDIS familiarization for each shipboard ECDIS system on which th

38、e navigating officer serves.n ObjectiveThose who successfully complete this course should be able to demonstrate sufficient knowledge, skill and understanding of ECDIS navigation and electronic charts to undertake the duties of a navigational watch officer defined by STCW Code, as amended. This know

39、ledge, skill and understanding should include Column 1 ECDIS competencies of Tables A-II, but is not limited to:z Knowledge of the capability and limitations of ECDIS operations, and all indicated sub-topicsz Proficiency in operation, interpretation, and analysis of information obtained from ECDIS,

40、and all indicated sub-topicsz Management of operational procedures, system files and data, and all indicated sub-topicsn Entry StandardsIt is assumed that trainees undertaking this course have accomplished some formal instruction in Terrestrial Navigation, have at minimum some familiarization with v

41、isual navigation, have accomplished a period of supervised bridge watch-keeping duties, and have prior completion of basic Radar/ARPA (MC 1.07). Trainees should also have considerable familiarization with personal computing operating systems, keyboards and mice or trackballs.n Course Certificate, di

42、ploma or documentDocumentary evidence should be issued to those who have successfully completed this course indicating that the holder has completed training in the navigational use and operation of Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS) based on this model course.JB-12-63 IMO TA12

44、binations of these methods, such that each trainee is provided access to an ECDIS with ENC data for all required hours of practice and assessment in a controlled visual underway navigational environment. Methods of distance learning or computer-based training may be used to supplement the familiariz

45、ation stages of this course, but should not be substituted for the underway assessment of proficiency.n Course intake limitationsThe maximum number of trainees should depend on the facilities and equipment available, bearing in mind the scope and objectives of this course. The instructor trainee rat

46、io should be limited to 1:12. When a class size exceeds 12 trainees, an assistant instructor is required.n Staff requirementsThe following are the minimum qualifications recommended for instructors delivering a course that follows the IMO Model Course 1.27.
