2. 1. Meeting diversities in maritime education. A blend from World Maritime University

   Author : Jan Horck; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Education; multi-cultural; culture; multi-language; language; IMO; WMU; maritime; pedagogy; Bronfenbrenner; MET;

   Abstract : To address a diversified student complement in academic studies is becoming more and more frequent in maritime education and training. Diversity challenges are also the reality onboard ships that muster a multicultural crew complement. READ MORE

4. 2. A Mixed Crew Complement : A maritime safety challenge and its impact on maritime education and training

   Author : Jan Horck; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; multiculture; communication; shipping; education; teacher; seafarer; context; maritime;

   Abstract : The human factor/human element starts to have a key role in accidents and incidents during shipments at sea. Investigations show that poor communications increasingly are the root for many tragedies. A possible reason for communication constraints is the growing trend to employ multicultural crews.
