Studying the details behind each standard element can help education providers make an effective On-Water recreational powerboating instruction program more readily available.
Standard Elements—Details and Assessment Rubrics
This section contains detailed information in the form of “one-pagers” for each element, providing additional details about the intent behind the element, the performance assessment rubrics, and any explanations or clarifications. Each element is followed by:
• An Understanding the Element section that indicates why the element is included in the standard and any clarification needed such as definitions of words or phrases, or additional detail not written in the element.
• A Designing Instruction section, which includes things to be considered when designing instructional programs, as well as tips for teaching the skill.
• An Assessing Performance section, which contains the Rubrics used for performance measurement. They are organized by the same eight recreational boat operations used to develop and organize EDU-1, which are: 1. Prepare to depart 2. Leave a departure point 3. Maneuver in close quarters 4. Operate in open water 5. Arrive at destination—make the first contact 6. Secure the boat—prepare to leave the boat unattended 7. Perform general safety operating procedures 8. Perform emergency procedures/maneuvers
Each year the USCG compiles recreational boating accident statistics, which are derived from accident reports filed by recreational vessel owners and operators. The 50 states, five U.S. territories and the District of Columbia submit accident report data to the USCG for inclusion in the annual Boating Statistics publication.
For those standard elements in which recreational boating statistics are available and applicable, a reference to the relevant statistic has been provided using the figure of a magnifying glass. The information contained within the figure identifies a trend over a four- year period (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021) of Recreational Boating Statistics reports, which can be downloaded at:
