Abstract

One of the interests of maritime sociology beside the maritime professions, social maritime processes, seaside communities has been for decades maritime upbringing. The idea of maritime upbringing as well as the activities associated with it have been constantly transforming. The aim of the article is to specify the current ways of understanding the maritime upbringing and the rules of implementing this idea by teachers of various educational levels. The authors of the article present the results of their survey among teachers (quantitative research, questionnaire survey by post) employed in Westpomeranian schools. As it comes to more detailed research problems the authors make attempt to answer two questions: which forms of maritime upbringing are preferred by teachers and what functions in their opinion it should fulfil in the upbringing process. According to the research maritime upbringing is thought to be desired especially when incorporated in the process of building local identity.
