摘要
This descriptive-correlational study was conducted to determine the relationship between the knowledge and skills of the BSMT (Bachelor of Science in Maritime Transportation) students in PE (Physical Education) 2 (Advanced Swimming and Life-saving Techniques). The respondents of the study were the 40 second year BSMT students that were taken through purposive sampling. The study utilized a researcher-made questionnaire for both knowledge and skills that had undergone validity and reliability-testing. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data such as mean, standard deviation, and Spearman’s rho. Results revealed that their knowledge on Advanced Swimming and Life-saving Techniques was “Fair” while the skills of the second year BSMT students were “Very good”. Furthermore, the knowledge of the BSMT students had a positive correlation (substantial) with their skills on Advanced Swimming and Life-saving Techniques. The second year BSMT students are encouraged to undergo trainings and upgrading to enhance their knowledge and skills in Advanced Swimming and Life-saving Techniques in order for them to become life-long learners.
