Description |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral presentation complemented by the use of audiovisual media and the introduction of some questions addressed to students, in order to transmit knowledge and facilitate learning.
The master class is also known as a conference", "expository method" or "master lesson". This last modality seems to be reserved for a special type of lesson given by a teacher on special occasions, with a content that supposes an original elaboration and based on the almost exclusive use of the word as a means of transmitting information to the audience. |
Field trip |
Practices in the UDC nautical instalations, practices in boats and C.I. Activities developed in an external context to the university academic environment |
Objective test |
Written test used for the evaluation of learning, whose distinctive feature is the possibility of determining if the answers given are correct or not. It constitutes a measurement instrument, rigorously elaborated, that allows to evaluate knowledge, capacities, skills, performance, etc.
The objective test can combine different types of questions: multiple-choice, short-answer, and/or development questions. It can also be built with a single type of any of these questions. |

Assessment comments |
To pass the subject by continuous assessment, the minimum attendance at the master sessions will be 80%. To pass the subject by continuous assessment, the minimum attendance at the compulsory practices will be 100%. The obligatory practices of the subject, along with passing the rest of the methodologies, are associated with obtaining the following certificates: Basic Training in Safety and Survival Craft and Non-Fast Rescue Boats. In order to obtain said certificates, it will also be mandatory to carry out 100% of these practices. The mandatory practices consist of 30 contact hours, 40 hours in total, as can be seen in step 4. Of these 30 contact hours, 8 hours correspond to Basic Fire Fighting. The Advanced Fire Fighting Course is presented as an elective for students and consists of 33 H. Students who wish to obtain this Certificate must complete the remaining 25 H of the course and that are out of planning. 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. Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from attendance exemption, second establishes the "RULE THAT REGULATES THE REGIME OF DEDICATION TO THE STUDY OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AT UDC (Articles 2.3; 3. b; 4.3 and 7.5 ) (05/04/2017) may take the partial tests, if necessary, without having to attend 80% of the face-to-face classes, as long as the teachers are duly informed at the beginning of the course. These students may be asked to do different jobs/problems throughout the course to be exposed during lecture hours.Due to the very nature of the practices, which are not recoverable, no academic waiver is contemplated for their evaluation. The fraudulent performance of the tests or evaluation activities will imply the qualification of fail in the call in which the offense is committed and the student will be graded with "suspense" (numerical grade 0) in the corresponding call of the academic year, both if the commission of the foul occurs in the first how in the second opportunity. To do this, its qualification will be modified in the first opportunity certificate if necessary.
