Description:
This CD-ROM software is the first of two directed at students studying for professional merchant navy deck officer certificates of competency. Ship Stability For Deck Officers - Class 4/00 W covers the syllabus requirements for the current SQA examination and HNC level unit(s) being offered by colleges as part of the underpinning knowledge required for certification to Officer of the Watch (OOW) level (STCW 95).
Those topics not highlighted are not examined in the current MCA examination, however, some may be examined at HNC level as part of the in-college unit(s) that are taught.
The purpose of including the more advanced material is primarily one of giving the program a suitable ending. To only cover those topics necessary to pass the OOW level examinations would be like writing a book but missing out the last chapter! Sections 16-19 take the learner beyond the scope of the OOW level requirements to allow the learner to be able to complete a full ship load problem using the ship stability data book developed for this purpose. These final sections will be invaluable to anyone preparing themselves for the more advanced Class 2/1 Ship Stability examinations. A second CD- ROM is currently being developed for the higher level Class 2/1 candidate.
I wish to express my gratitude to all at Seamanship International Ltd. for making the production of this software possible and to my colleague. Douglas McHugh, who painstakingly read and checked much of it's content. Finally; I would be pleased to receive comments on this software and any suggestions that users may care to make for its improvement. These will be seriously considered for later revised edition(s). Good luck with your studies. Martin A. Rhodes. (Lecturer - Glasgow College of Nautical Studies)

A trend in recent years in the education of professional
seafarers has been to reduce the time that the student actually
spends in college and for the introduction of a more structured
learning experience whilst the student is actually at sea. With
most educational establishments there is an urgency to
develop 'distance learning' based courses. This trend is likely
to become more popular with students undertaking academic
training courses, but one that is also setting a real challenge to
lecturers, like myself.
Traditional classroom teaching techniques will always have a
place in the education of seafarers. However, with the
growing availability of PC access on board modem ships it is
envisaged that, with the aid of appropriate software, students
will be more able to prepare themselves for the short periods
of very intense study required of them during their college
phases. This software is specifically designed for this purpose.
It is my experience that many students, resulting from their
lack of mathematical ability, often meet the subject of ship
stability with apprehension. This is the main reason for the
downfall of many students studying this topic. This program is
designed to address this problem by covering the subject
content in the simplest way possible and at an assumed
mathematical level that is appropriate for a learner studying
independently. Worked examples and self-assessment
questions (SAQ's) are provided throughout for the learner to
assess his her progress. At the end of each section tutorial
questions are provided with solutions fully worked out. All
such questions are designed to be of a type and standard that
are likely to be encountered in real examinations at OOW
level.
It is this approach which gives this work an added advantage
over most modem text books on the subject of ship stability,
were a high level of mathematical ability is often assumed. It
has often been the experience of many students to encounter
worked examples in text books that are not sufficiently broken
down to enforce proper understanding. Formulae are derived
where appropriate to enhance understanding.
Look through the contents of the program that follows.
Those highlighted in blue must be studied for the OOW level
examinations.
