Trawling techniques and open-sea survival training anchor Grade 10 Marine Technology in Term 3, setting out 41 instructional periods in 10 pages, exploring commercial vessels alongside open-water emergency survival protocols.
The term centres on the Capture Fisheries strand through two distinct modules:
- Fleet Classifications: contrasting commercial trawlers, artisanal dhows, and sport angling vessels, and examining mesh specifications across weeks 1 to 3.
- Maritime Safety and Survival: interpreting nautical weather alerts, deploying life jackets, managing personal survival craft, and administering marine first aid through weeks 4 to 6.
- Fishery Conservation: reviewing juvenile catch limits, protecting coastal mangrove nurseries, and auditing vessel logbooks during weeks 6 to 8.
- Assessment: completing mid-term theoretical tests in week 7 alongside emergency drill evaluations in week 9.
