Code No: 804
Video Running Time:
This CD-ROM package is designed to meet the requirements of
those studying for STCW levels of signalling. It consists of
tutorials, practical demonstrations, brief guides and a series of
tests. The user can select the range of signals and mode of
testing. If he/she is logged in, the program will record
results.
There are three modes of testing: tutorial, test and assessment.
An on-screen timer is available to help users improve their speed
of signal recognition. If a question is not answered within the
selected time it is marked as incorrect with a time-out mark.
The tests cover all aspects of signalling:-
- Flag Signalling
- Morse signalling
- Coding and Decoding (Note: the International Code of Signals
Book is required)
- Signals between Ice Breakers and Assisted Vessels
- Signals Assessment
Reference Guides
In addition to the above the program includes the following
reference guides:-
- A brief guide to the ICS Book
- A brief guide to coding and decoding
- Signals between Ice Breakers and Assisted vessels
- Display flags in selected range
- Intership flag signalling tutorial and demonstration
- Display Morse symbols for selected range
- Intership Morse light signalling tutorial and
demonstration
-
Results
These are displayed continuously throughout the quiz and at the end
the user may in addition to just receiving a percentage and comment
view a mark sheet detailing the questions answered correctly,
incorrectly or passed on (not known). If the user has logged in to
the program (i.e. entered their name) then the result will be
recorded. Results may be printed out, and a logged-in user can view
their latest 10-recorded scores.
On standalone machines results will be recorded locally and on
networks where the program is accessed via the server - results are
stored centrally.
