Enhancing Web Based E-Learning in Maritime Education ?Experiences From Projects in Montenegro

This paper considers some beginning steps in introducing and developing web based e-learning resources into seafarers’ education, as additional mode of acquiring knowledge, at the Faculty of Maritime Studies, which is a part of the University of Montenegro. Some numerical and qualitative results of the polls realized among a number of involved students, teachers, and experts in the field, are presented and discussed in order to identify pros and cons of the issue, as well as the directions for further acting. Finally, some empirically based suggestions related to technical support in terms of software platform and tools for creating more interesting, engaging and inciting e-instructional materials are given, as well.
