Abstract

In recent years, underwater research and marine development have been accelerated in worldwide, and human resource development has become an issue in the industrial world. Japanese high schools, universities, etc. do not have any institutions that provide basic education on practical underwater equipment, and there are few textbooks. In addition, in biological and natural science faculties and departments, the content of education is limited to how to use underwater equipment, and there are few opportunities to learn development and maintenance. However, many of these graduates who have jobs in the marine industry are faced with on-site equipment maintenance and repair. It takes time and money to develop human resources to learn how to handle underwater equipment from zero base, which may cause a delay in the competition in the world. Therefore, we have developed a learning kit that allows you to learn from the basics how to handle underwater equipment.
