Basic maths for seafarers

摘要

UK-based seafarers' charity the Marine Society has launched a new web-based maths development programme, aimed at helping ratings who are studying for STCW officer-of-the-watch certificates under the Slater Awards scheme. The charity says that Mathsatsea.com, designed by specialists in nautical education, will address the needs of ratings who seek career advancement. South Tyneside Marine College identified common areas of weakness, while specialist maritime eLearning provider CoracleOnline.com created the content and manages online registration and assessment.
