Description |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Lecture of the subject complemented with the use of audiovisual presentations and the introduction of some questions addressed to the students, in order to transmit knowledge and facilitate learning.
Within this dynamic the intervention of the students will be open for the realization of questions or comments, which could lead to open debates.
The texts and/or audiovisual presentations used will be made available to the student body sufficiently in advance so that they can read it beforehand. |
Workbook |
Documentation provided to students where the content to be developed in the subject is studied in depth. |
Simulation |
Exercises performed in the maneuver and navigation simulator in which students will be placed before hypothetical conditions that simulate situations that could occur in a real context, with the purpose of using them as learning experiences and evaluation procedures. In these simulations the students will demonstrate their skills in specific situations, their knowledge, their ability to make decisions.
|
Laboratory practice |
Realization of practical exercises related to the theoretical concepts explained in the lectures |
Objective test |
Written test used to evaluate learning, whose distinctive feature is the ability to determine whether the answers given are correct or not. It is a measurement instrument, rigorously elaborated, that allows evaluating knowledge, abilities, skills, performance, etc.
Objective testing can combine different types of questions: multiple-choice, short-answer, and / or developmental questions. You can also build with only one type of any of these questions. |

Description |
The follow-up of the work done by the students, both in the theoretical and practical classes, will be carried out continuously in the classroom and, if specific needs are detected, additional tutorials of individual character or in a very small group of support will be established.
In the case of students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic waiver of exemption from attendance, a series of mandatory tutorials (at least one for each topic), face-to-face or remote, must be agreed with the teacher throughout the course to accredit the follow-up of the matter. |

Objective test |
A1 A2 A3 A5 A6 A7 B9 B13 C6 |
For students with regular class attendance (at least 80%), four partial tests will be carried out throughout the course to assess the follow-up of the work done during the semester (three practical exercises and a theoretical test). Those who pass all the partial exams with an average grade equal to or greater than 5 will not have to take the final exam, unless they wish to raise the grade for the course. The minimum mark to be able to compensate by arithmetic mean each one of the partials at the time of obtaining the mark of the course will be 3.5. In case of obtaining a grade lower than 3.5 in any of the partial exams, the grade for the course will be failed (with a maximum grade of 4). In case of not showing up to any of the partial exams, it will be considered that the student is not following the continuous evaluation system described and will be graded by course as not showing up.
Students who do not follow the evaluation system described or fail the subject by course, must take the final exam of the official call, in which the entire subject will enter. The partial tests passed with a grade greater than or equal to 5, will release material for the final exam of the first opportunity, but not for that of the second opportunity (the students who must be examined in the second opportunity must do it for the entire subject ).
With this methodology, competencies A1, A2, A3, A5, A6, A7, B9, B13, C6 will be evaluated. |

Simulation |
A1 A2 A5 A6 A7 A19 B4 B9 B13 B14 B15 C2 C6 C10 C11 |
The simulation exercises will require attendance to pass the subject and will be evaluated without a numerical grade (pass or fail).
Those students who do not attend 80% of the simulation classes will be classified as unfit.
With this methodology, competencies A1, A2, A5, A6, A7, A19, B4, B9, B13, B14, B15, C2, C6, C10, C11 will be evaluated. |

Laboratory practice |
A1 A2 A3 B12 B13 B14 C10 |
In the event that a student has failed the subject with a grade equal to or greater than 4.5, he may pass the subject as long as he has completed 100% of the practices proposed in class throughout the course.
With this methodology, competencies A1, A2, A3, B13, B14, C10 will be evaluated. |

Assessment comments |
Each
exam, both partial and final, will consist of several clearly
differentiated parts in terms of content and resolution methodology (for
example different parts of theory or different types of exercises),
which will be corrected separately in base 10. As long as the grade of each of these parts is equal to or greater than 3.5, the note of the examination will be the arithmetic mean of the parties. If
a grade lower than 3.5 is obtained in any part of the exam, the exam
grade will correspond to the weighted geometric average of the parts
(giving greater weight to the lowest grade obtained). Students
with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption of
attendance exemption will not be required a minimum attendance to be
able to take part exams, however, they must agree with the teacher a
series of tutorials (face-to-face or non-presential) throughout the course to accredit the follow-up of the subject. Those students qualified as unsuitable in the simulation methodology can not pass the subject. In this case even surpassing the objective test and the laboratory practices the student will be qualified with a 4. The
evaluation criteria contemplated in Table A-II/2 of the STCW Code, as
amended, and included in the Quality Assurance System, will be taken
into account when designing and carrying out the evaluation. The fraudulent completion of exams or assessment activities, once confirmed, will result directly in a failing grade in the respective exam session: the student will be graded as "fail" (numerical grade of 0) in the corresponding academic year's exam session, whether the misconduct occurs in the first opportunity or the second. In this regard, their grade will be modified in the first opportunity's record, if necessary.
