independently, in the classroom, and in
the simulator.
• Present an audio-visual document about
various accidents that have occurred in the
marine district.
• Analyse them with candidates and discuss
possible factors.
• Remind candidates of the value of preparing
emergency orders that are appropriate for
the ship and the marine district. Preparing

random factors.
