General description Capacitar ós alumnos en todos os aspectos relacionados coas Comunicaciones Marítimas co obxetivo de que consigan a capacidade necesaria para manexar todos os equipos seguindo os procedementos establecidos.
Contingency plan 1. Modificacións nos contidos
Computaranse as prácticas que se poideron facer presencial con tarefas engadidas, con participación mínima do 80%
Realizaranse tarefas propostas para poder facer unha evaluación continua
Farase unha proba obxetiva a través da ferrametna moodle, a nota será sumada á obtida cas tarefas encomendadas
Aquel estudante que posúa o título de operador de GMDSS terá un 5 asignatura (podendo obter máis puntuación se realiza a proba obxetiva)

2. Metodoloxías
*Metodoloxías docentes que se manteñen
Sesión maxistral: a través da ferramenta teams no horario indicado polo centro.
Traballos tutelados
Atención personalizada

*Metodoloxías docentes que se modifican
Prácticas en simulador: deixaranse para poder realizarse en canto sexa posible, xa que as prácticas levan consigo un certificado de especialidade. Serán evaluadas aquelas que se poideran realizar xunto con unhas tarefas relacionadas indicadas pola profesora.

3. Mecanismos de atención personalizada ao alumnado

Correo electrónico: diariamente. De uso para facer consultas, solicitar encontros virtuais para resolver dúbidas e facer seguimento das tarefas encomendadas.
Moodle: Semanalmente. Para acceso ó temario da materia e para as tarefas encomendadas.
Teams: en día e hora proposta en xunta de escola das clases maxistrais, conexións propostas a maiores para discusión dirixida de tarefas. Ademáis de todas aquelas conexións precisas por parte do alumnado proposta con antelación.


4. Modificacións na avaliación

*Observacións de avaliación:
Para o alumnado con dedicación completa, alumnado a tempo parcial, requisitos para superar a materia, condicións da avaliación na 2ªoportunidade, etc...)
Evaluación continua: farase unha proba "exame prefinal" coa data consesuada co alumnado, para a realización de dita proba é indispensable a entrega das tarefas propostas
1ª oprotunidade: evaluación contínua como se sinala no apartado 4 (sumando prácticas+tarefas+proba test)
2ª oportunidade: prácticas que contarán o 20% ( tendo que entregar unha tarefa que se propoña a maiores das prácticas que poideron ser realizadas no simulador) e mais a proba tipo test que contará o 80% restante.
A) alumnado con dedicación completa:
asistencia /participación nas tarefas correspondentes ás prácticas mínimo 80%
B)alumnado con recoñecemento de dedicación a tempo parcial e dispensa académica de exención de asistencia, segundo establece a "NORMA QUE REGULA O RÉXIME DE DEDICACIÓN AO ESTUDO DOS ESTUDANTES DE GRAO NA UDC (arts.2.3;3.b e 4.5)(29/5/212):
asistencia/participación nas tarefas correspondentes ás prácticas mínimo 80%. De non poder asistir ás sesións maxistarais acordarase coa profesora titorías.
5. Modificacións da bibliografía ou webgrafía
Non se fan modificacións da bibliografía respecto á guía docente, somente se facilita ó estudante unha serie de apuntes a través de moodle para poder superar a materia.

Guest lecture / keynote speech The exhibition of each one of the subjects is formed that conform the program taking like reference basic the Manual of Radio communications recommended.
NOTE: With this Methodology, the student acquires the competitions of the degree: A11, A17, A18, A19, A20, A26,A29, C2, C3.
Objective test The objective test will consist of either concept development questions and short development questions; multiple choice questions or both types of test. Students will be informed in advance of the type of test and the relative score of the different types of questions in each exam. The content of the questions will deal with the subjects taught in class and on which the student will be provided with sufficient material to pass.
A series of tasks will have to be carried out in relation to the given subject, whose mark will be added to that of the objective test.

Laboratory practice The students are divided in reduced groups to realise the obligatory practices in the Simulator of Communications YOU COMPROMISE where they take to end scenes that allow to assimilate of practical way the referring theoretical concepts to matter.
NOTE: With this Methodology, the student acquires the competitions of the degree: A11, A17, A18, A19, A20,A26, A29, A37, B2, B4, B11, B12, C2, C3.
Introductory activities The first class of the academic course will dedicate a series of activities in which will appear the matter to the students and it will be to determine the competitions, I interest and motivations that the pupils for the profit of the objectives own to reach.
Summary Towards the end of the course one actual class of synthesis of the main contents will be realised. With this resource it is tried to help the pupils to understand of global to matter by means of it review of or studied form, pausing of particular form in those aspects that could give rise to confusion or whose content was not assimilated suitably.

Those students who have the GMDSS General Operator's Certificate are considered to have passed the subject with a grade of 5.0. However, any student in this situation can attend the class and take the exams to raise this minimum grade.

The objective test will consist of a series of short concept questions, a multiple choice test, or a combination of the two test systems mentioned above, in which case the teacher will set the specific assessment criteria for each of the parties in advance.
It will be necessary to carry out different tasks related to the subject, the mark achieved will be added to the mark achieved in the objective test.
To pass by course, it will be necessary to obtain an average mark of 5.0

Assessment comments

The contemplated criteria of evaluation in pictures A-II/1, La-II/2, La-III/1 and La-III/2 of Code STCW and its amendments related to this matter will consider at the time of designing and realising their evaluation.
This matter includes the contents corresponding to the course of General Operating specialty (132h) established in the Section To II/1 and La-II/2 of the STCW 78/95/10, in accordance with the course model OMI 1,25.


For the obtaining of the certificate of General Operating specialty it is necessary the overcoming of this matter.
