Improving Maritime Education for Sustainability and Industry Alignment - A Qualitative and Systematic Literature Review
This study explores the integration of sustainability into maritime education and its alignment with the evolving demands of the maritime industry. The research was motivated by the increasing necessity for maritime professionals to possess both technical expertise and a strong understanding of sustainable practices in response to environmental concerns. Previous studies have emphasized sustainability as a theoretical concept, yet practical insights from maritime professionals, educators, and graduates have been underexplored. The study addresses three key questions: How is sustainability incorporated into maritime curricula? How well do vocational programs match industry needs? How do the perspectives of professionals, educators, and graduates contribute to refining maritime education? A qualitative research approach was used, consisting of interviews with two maritime experts, six educators, and two graduates, complemented by a systematic literature review (SLR) to analyze current trends and gaps. Findings reveal significant progress in sustainability integration, although practical implementation and continuous professional development require further attention. The SLR supported these conclusions, stressing the importance of interdisciplinary curricula. The research concludes that aligning education with industry needs and embedding sustainable practices into programs are crucial for preparing a skilled maritime workforce. Practical recommendations are offered for both educational institutions and the maritime sector, with suggestions for future research on green technologies and ongoing professional development.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the application of the KWL (Know, Want, Learned) technique in improving the early reading skills of grade 1 students of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah. Using a literature study approach, this study analyzed various journals and scientific articles related to the application of the KWL technique. The KWL technique involves three stages, namely identifying initial knowledge (Know), determining learning objectives (Want), and reflecting on learning outcomes (Learned). The results of the study showed that the KWL technique significantly improved students' understanding of the text, learning motivation, and critical thinking skills. The use of supporting media, such as picture storybooks or letter puzzles, also strengthened the effectiveness of this technique by creating an interactive and meaningful learning experience. The application of KWL is in accordance with the theory of social constructivism and self-determination, which emphasizes the importance of social interaction and intrinsic motivation in learning. With promising results, the KWL technique can be a strategic alternative to improve students' early reading skills at the elementary school level. This study makes an important contribution to the development of innovative and enjoyable reading learning methods, which support the improvement of students' literacy quality as a whole
