Description |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral presentation (using audiovisual material and student interaction) designed to transmit knowledge and encourage learning. Presentations of this type are variously referred to as ‘expository method’, ‘guest lectures’ or ‘keynote speeches’. (The term ‘keynote’ refers only to a type of speech delivered on special occasions, for which the lecture sets the tone or establishes the underlying theme; it is characterised by its distinctive content, structure and purpose, and relies almost exclusively on the spoken word to communicate its ideas.) |
| Workshop |
Supervised learning process aimed at helping students to work independently in a range of contexts (academic and professional). Focused primarily on learning ‘how to do things’ and on encouraging students to become responsible for their own learning. |
| Mixed objective/subjective test |
Mixed test consisting of essay-type and objective test questions. Essay section consists of open (extended answer) questions; objective test may contain multiple-choice, ordering and sequencing, short answer, binary, completion and/or multiple-matching questions. |
| Supervised projects |
Methodology designed to promote students' autonomous learning, under the guidance of the teacher and in a variety of scenarios (academic and professional). It is primarily concerned with learning "how to do things". It is an option based on students taking responsibility for their own learning.
This teaching system is based on two basic elements: independent learning by students and monitoring of this learning by the teacher-tutor.

Assessment comments |
In order to be entitled to continuous
assessment, a minimum of 80% of attendance to face-to-face classes will be
required. The final grade of the Continuous Assessment will be 60% of Mixed
Test and 40% of Tutored Work. Students with recognition of part-time
dedication and academic dispensation of exemption from attendance (according to
the "Norma que Regula o Réxime de Dedicación ao Estudo dos Estudantes de
Grao na UDC”), will be able to take the Continuous Assessment without the need
to attend 80% of the face-to-face classes. To this end, these students will
duly inform the lecturers, at the beginning of the course, of this situation of
academic dispensation and of their availability to attend classes. Apart from
the Autonomous Work included in this Teaching Guide, the teachers will be able
to give these students different assignments/problems throughout the course to
be presented during tutorial hours. Students who do not follow the course
(attendance less than 80%), or who do not pass the Continuous Assessment, will
be able to sit the final exams in January and July. The assessment of these exams
will consist of a Mixed Test that may include essay-type questions, open
questions, multiple-choice, multiple-choice, ordering, short-answer,
discrimination, completion and/or association questions. The contents of these
mixed tests may cover any content of the subject. Such a Mixed Test will
account for 100% of the qualification of that call. The evaluation criteria contemplated in Table A-II/1 of the STCW Code, and included in the Quality Assurance System, will be taken into account when designing and carrying out the evaluation. |
