Creators Sugimoto Masahiro

The amended STCW Convention requires that every instructor and assessor involved in maritime education and training (MET) shall be properly qualified and experienced. This article attempts to interpret the STCW requirement so as to identify what necessary qualifications and experience each MET instructor and assessor should possess. Definitions of the curriculum and syllabus are clarified as essential elements of pedagogical knowledge required for MET instructors and assessors. Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives is examined in relation to a syllabus written in learning objective format. This study ends with emphasizing the importance of proper selection of performance verbs in the syllabus to ensure effective learning activities and evaluation.
