| Methodologies |
| Methodologies | Description |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech | There will be a detailed explanation of the contents of the subject which will be distributed on issues. The student will has got a typed copy of the issue to be addressed before each lesson. Class participation will be encouraged through comments that relate the theoretical contents with real life experiences |
| Objective test | About 4 written partial tests will be conducted, including possibility to recover contents from the second test. Each test will consist of a theoretical and practical part, so that both account for 50% of the grade. Ordinary and extraordinary exams have got the same format. |
| Laboratory practice | Practical lessons will be conducted in two laboratories: Machinery and Engines, with a industrial type steam generator; Chemistry, where practices will be made with regard to the analysis and treatment of boiler water. Attendance and delivery of work practices is mandatory for passing the subject |
| Document analysis | Using different literature sources, students will get used to the individual seeking information in order to deepen or focus on learning from other points of view that are not exclusively the professor's lessons. It is a training to future needs of the student in their professional development |
| Problem solving | Proposed collections of exercises for each topic will be solved, allowing the application of mathematical models best suited to each case, including managing tables, applying the most appropriate assumptions, the relation with theoretical contents developed in the lessons and relationship with professional practice |

| Assessment comments | |||
|
IT IS IMPORTANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT THE ASSISTANCE TO LABORATORY PRACTICES IS NEEDED TO OVERCOME THE COURSE. ASSISTANCE TO THE DIFFERENT METHODOLOGIES ARE CERTIFIED BY SIGNING OF EACH STUDENT AN ATTENDANCE SHEET PROVIDED EVERY DAY BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SESSION.
A final examination to collect all course methodologies and representing 100% of the grade, is planned for those students who do not follow the teaching , as long as they pass mandatory laboratory practices. The evaluation criteria listed in Tables A-III / 1 and La-III / 2, of the STCW Code, as amended, relating to this matter will be taken into account when designing and conducting evaluation. |
