MORETOWN, VT, January 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) Little Pines Multimedia has upgraded their online sailing courses at LearntoSailOnLine.Com to an instructional environment that offers certification upon completion and the complete course delivered to the student as an app that can be used as a reference forever. The completed sailing course app runs on iPad, other Apple devices, Android, Blackberry, PC and Mac.
Integrating the courses with Digital Chalk, an online training platform, tests and grading are now offered, furthering the learning experience. This new platform allows newbie or rusty sailors access to affordable, individual sailing lessons with a qualified sailing instructor anytime from anywhere. No installation necessary; all that is needed is an internet connection.
"We are very excited to have found Digital Chalk.", states Linda Cullum, CEO of Little Pines Multimedia. "It was just the thing we were looking for to really bring the sailing classroom learning environment to the students. Students have complete control over their pace, choose the topics they want and take notes within the digital chalkboard that are printable at anytime. They can sign in at anytime to where they left off and retake the tests until they graduate."
Not a typical "read the computer screen" lesson format, these lessons are taught using narration, animation and digital video. The lessons are arranged in the order a typical sailing course. Starting with Parts of a Boat, the lessons continue on to other topics such as Wind Theory, Balance, The Points of Sail, Leaving Docks and Moorings, Tacking, Person Overboard Techniques, Righting a Capsize, Knots, Anchoring and much more. Registration is easy and a free test drive course is available at LearnToSailOnLine.com.
The sailing lessons on LearntoSailOnLine.Com were created using Little Pines Multimedia's Learn to Sail! with Multimedia!, which has sold over 9,00o copies to sailing schools, Power Squadron, US Navy, and individuals.
Online sailing lessons are beneficial to those who want to save money by learning from the convenience of home. Nothing replaces the hands on experience of boating, however, classroom time is always part of any sailing course. By taking these lessons beforehand, the educated sailor will save money and have a greater return on investment.
