The evaluation of the content taught in masterclasses and problem
solving sessions of the subject represents 80% of the total marks. The
evaluation of laboratory and ICT practices by the short answer questions
is the remaining 20%.
To pass the course will be required:
1)
Mixed exam: written exam about the content taught in masterclasses and
problem solving sessions: have a minimum of 3.8 points out of 8. The
student must demonstrate a basic knowledge of all the content of the
subject in this exam.
For students (matriculated full-time or part-time) who regularly attend
class (minimum 80% attendance), a continuous assessment could be made
throughout the course that could exempt part or all of the subject in
the final mixed test.
Works carried out independently by the student and posed by the Professor of theory can be presented optionally.
Answers to the teacher during the course in the keynote and problem-solving sessions could be estimated positively.
To pass the course, 4 out of 8 must be reached in the final marks of theory and problems.
2) Practices: To have a minimum of 1 point in the practices.
Attending the practices and performing their corresponding projects will be assessed positively. At the beginning of each practice, the student will have to write the answers to a set of three (3) brief questions (tests) related to the abovementioned practice. If the student does not answer correctly at least two of those questions, the score obtained in the practice will be halved.
The students registered part-time or with academic dispensation of attendance exemption will have the option of taking an exam about laboratory/ITC practices at the end of the course.
If a minimum of 4 out 8 is not
obtained in the final marks of theory and problems, the practice marks will be divided by two to
calculate the final marks. If in practice the minimum 1 was not
obtained, to calculate the final grade the geometric mean weighted will
be made.
The evaluation criteria considered in tables
A-III/1 and A-III/3 of the STCW Code and its amendments related to this
subject shall be taken into account when designing and evaluating.
