Sažetak
The content of the Marine Environment Protection course at the Maritime Department of the University of Zadar goes beyond STCW requirements. It addresses a number of environmental topics aiming to improve ocean environmental knowledge base in order to reduce future seafarers` poor environmental decision making and/or actions. Because the course is taught in the 1st year of the programme, there is a challenge of fitting ocean literacy content into an already heavy curriculum. In order to tailor content according to previous knowledge of students, assessment of ocean literacy at the beginning of the course may be done. For that purpose a revised version of the SOLE—Survey of Ocean Literacy and Experience questionnaire may be used. To define revisions, we performed a survey of the 3rd year maritime students which included filling in a questionnaire and collecting their proposals of environmental content which should be included in teaching. The results of the survey are discussed and future research is proposed.
