Chapter 1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Introduction
Measuring Students knowledge and skills in relation to their mathematical capabilities in order to acknowledge their competency as a basic tool or requirement in pursuing to their course Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation.
The Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation (BSMT) is a four-year undergraduate degree program which leads to a professional career in the maritime industry, as a marine deck officer. Through this program, the students will be able to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge needed to accomplish their future duties and responsibilities of a marine officer, and will be exposed to theories and practices in seamanship, navigation, ship business, meteorology, and marine laws.
The Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation is taught through classroom-based frontal instructions, regular hands-on trainings usually conducted in special laboratories, as well as simulation activities regarding the use of modern ship equipments like the RADAR, ARPA, and GMDSS communication.
The objective of this research is to know the mathematical competency of Maritime Students in selected schools in Metro Manila. Aristotle said “Mathematics is the manipulation of the meaningless symbols of a first-order language according to explicit, syntactical rules still other approaches emphasize pattern, order, or structure”. In our students today, the first problem is the lack of knowledge in solving mathematical problems, but as marine transportation
