Maritime Accident Information – Entrants’ Evaluation of Dissemination Forms
1 Gdynia Maritime University, Gdynia, Poland
ABSTRACT: Safety is one of the most important factors taken into consideration in modern shipping industry. To reduce the number of accidents, it is crucial to deliver information about past disasters to maritime specialists. Conditions of work at sea demand to acquire the most knowledge in the shortest possible time. This paper evaluates various forms of presentation of such information in order to find how efficient they are in terms of data quality, usefulness and time required to comprehend them. Research was conducted among students of the Gdynia Maritime University. The students were presented with different material followed by a test. The best results were achieved with infographic and lecture presentation. Full reports were found too complex to be used on a daily basis despite their undeniable role in accident investigation.
