Ħ Maritime English Vocabulary Developing Program (MEV-DEV)

This program allows a user to learn Maritime English words and phrases as they listen to example sentences. It is so designed that 5 sessions of 10 to 20 words make up one lesson to be covered in a week. The program is written using Java Script and is meant to be viewed using Internet Explorer. It can easily be modified using a simple text editor (e.g. Notepad) to add new items to an existing lesson, or create a new lesson of your own.
