SITUATIONAL TASK IN THE CONTEXT OF VIRTUAL REALITY AS A MEANS OF MARINE SPECIALIST’S PROFESSIONAL TRAINING

Abstract

The use of situational tasks in the context of virtual reality is an important tool for the professional training of maritime specialists. The purpose of the study is to determine the methodology for designing test typical labor tasks – virtual reality tasks for working with the help of computer educational systems. Special attention is paid to the creation of test tasks with audio/video support: selection of the correct / least suitable answer, typing the answer using the keyboard, determining the algorithm of action, translation, filling in the blanks, adding information, and the original version of the answer. The inclusion of open-ended and closed-ended test questions in a situational task helps to determine the level of professional training using a foreign language component of activity. The situational task map, which includes various pedagogical tests, is based on an extensive structure of correct and incorrect answers, with the possibility of referring to a hint or standard in order to successfully complete a professional task that is similar to real-life conditions.
