Free PADI Open Water Diver Course workshop, Gili Islands
PADI unveiled the latest evolution of their popular PADI Open Water
Diver course at the 2013 DEMA Show. The revisions include changes to
knowledge development, confined water and open water training, as well
as new media training materials such as the highly anticipated PADI
Open Water Diver Touch, a tablet app.
The PADI Open Water course was built on a solid instructional
foundation, and it is probably the most popular global entry-level
diving course. However content updates were due, as well as
opportunities for superior student-centered learning and
confidence-building through refinements to in-water training. The
revisions grew from comments and suggestions gathered from the entire
PADI family, from the top five percent of PADI Members internationally
(those who certify the most divers), from those conducting beta
trials, from evaluation of diver incident reports, and from 13,700
surveys of new Open Water Divers.
Changes to the course itself, the revised course introduces
revolutionary student training materials, specifically the Open Water
Diver Touch. The Touch integrates the manual text, learning
objectives, video clips, and progressive self quizzes into an
interactive learning experience. In addition, the new PADI Skill
Practice and Dive Planning Slate provides PADI Instructors a new way
to assess student confidence. The slate also guides students in dive
planning.
"The PADI organization is dedicated to teaching diving in ways that
are effective, engaging, and enjoyable," says Drew Richardson, CEO and
President of PADI Worldwide. "The revised Open Water Diver course
revision applied instructional design, research and experience, along
with new state-of-the-art media, keeping PADI Members on the leading
edge of diver training."
Oceans 5 Dive Resort, a PADI Career Development
Center, located on the Gili Islands, is organizing a free confined open water
workshop. During this workshop PADI Course Director will explain the
changes and shows everyone who is interested in his ideas how to
demonstrate the skills.
All instructors and divemasters welcome!
