Good morning, I am a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer (MSDT) that happens to incorporate PADI’s dive specialties into classroom curriculum whenever possible. My intention is to write NGSS standards based curriculum that can be used by fellow dive instructors and in the classroom.

At the occasion of the European HOPE Conference ("Healthy Ocean Productive Ecosystem", March 2014, Brussels), one of the keynotes Paul Rose - working for the BBC and a diver since his childhood - launched the idea of making diving a compulsory part of the educational curricula... A strange idea??
