In support of the Department of
Education’s blended learning approach
given the pandemic, PTC-CSJ Foundation
produced five short videos earlier this
year that were used as supplementary
learning materials for Grade 6 students.

The videos, at less than eight minutes
each, are part of the Foundation’s My
Ship, My World (MSMW) Project and were
utilized to help introduce the world of
shipping to young students by
integrating shipping-related concepts in
the curricula of Science, Math, English,
and Araling Panlipunan.

The videos featured Jebsen PTC’s four
Captains and a Chief Engineer who
discussed how concepts such as speed,
distance, sound, and water consumption
are applied in shipping. The officers also
shared their personal experiences as
Global Maritime Professionals.

My Ship, My World is adapted from the
Adopt-A-Ship Program initiated by
the Cyprus Shipping Chamber,
CYMEPA. The Adopt-A-Ship Program
was promoted by InterManager and
piloted by PTC-CSJ in the Philippines
in 2017.

In 2018, PTC-CSJ initiated MSMW and
has since been expanded by IMO
Maritime Ambassador Carlos C.
Salinas, in coordination with the
Department of Education and ship
owners whose ships and Captains
participate in the Program.
