Teaching and learning maritime regulations, made easy
Through play, Nauticademy makes the whole rulebook visible: steering and sailing rules, buoyage, vessel lights, sound signals. A game-based learning solution already adopted by French maritime schools.
Designed and made
in Paimpol, France
Do you teach maritime regulations?
Then this is for you. Place vessels, buoys and lights on the board: your students see the situation and reason it out together. With Nauticademy, you can:
- Pass on your knowledge effectively through play
- Adapt the pace to every learner
- Boost interaction and reflection between participants
- Build your students' knowledge and skills in a practical way
- Include learners who struggle with traditional teaching
Watch
A Nauticademy session
Two minutes in a maritime school classroom: students handle the pieces, debate, and the rule becomes obvious.
What our solution encourages
Four bearings, like the four cardinal marks on the board.
North
Listening
Play gets students on board and keeps them actively listening. Your knowledge gets through more easily.
East
Memory
A hands-on way to remember the rules, at each student's own pace.
South
Discussion
Students talk it through, argue their case and reason as a group.
West
Understanding
Students see the rule in a real situation. They learn faster than from a book.
The Learning table
A beechwood board, a nautical chart covering every maritime configuration, and hundreds of pieces 3D-printed in our own workshop. The chart can even reproduce your local waters.
