Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Objective test A10 A14 A16 A17 A21 B5 B22 C10 In the navigation part, in addition to carrying out the simulation exercises, a multiple choice exam must be passed, where the degree of compliance of the students with the competencies to be achieved will be evaluated.
This exam will account for 90% of the grade for the navigation part (45% of the final grade for the subject).

With this methodology, the skills A10, A14, A16, A17, A21, B5, B22 and C10 will be evaluated.

Simulation A10 A14 A16 A17 A21 B4 B5 B6 B22 C3 C6 C7 C10 The simulation exercises that are carried out throughout the course will be separated into two categories, navigation and maneuvering, a separation that does not imply an independent realization, since exercises can be considered that unite both categories.
In the subject both categories will be evaluated separately.

In the maneuver part, the qualification of the subject will be based on the continuous monitoring of the simulation practices and the observation, by the teacher, of the evolution of each student, this methodology constituting 100% of the grade for this part. (and therefore 50% of the final grade for the course). If, in order to assess the student's evolution, the teacher considers the need for an objective test, the follow-up of the practices will account for 10% of the grade for this part (5% of the final grade for the subject), while 90% The rest will correspond to a multiple choice exam. This exam could be done at the same time as the one corresponding to the navigation part.

In the navigation part, this follow-up will account for 10% of the grade for said part (5% of the final grade for the subject), while the remaining 90% will correspond to a multiple choice exam.

With this methodology, the skills A10, A14, A16, A17, A21, B4, B5, B6, B22, C3, C6, C7 and C10 will be evaluated.

Assessment comments

The navigation and maneuvering parts will be evaluated independently, each one constituting 50% of the grade for the subject, requiring a minimum grade of 5 out of 10 to be able to average between them. If a grade of less than 5 is obtained in one of the two parts, the final grade for the subject will be the lower of the two grades obtained, even when the average between them is greater than 5.

Since this course includes the mandatory ARPA and ECDIS practices for the evaluation of the competence established in Order FOM/2296/2002, of September 4, 2002 and in the OMI 1.27 Model Course, and which will empower the student To obtain the ARPA automatic pointing radar specialty certificates and the ECDIS electronic chart information and display system (once they pass the rest of the subjects in which the corresponding theoretical training is given), a minimum attendance of the 80% of the simulation exercises of each one of the parts. Those students who do not meet this minimum attendance will be graded with a grade below 5, and will not be able to pass the subject. The practices are not recoverable and, therefore, students who have not met the requirements of attendance to them will not be able to pass this part by continuous evaluation. However, students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from assistance, second establishes the "RULE THAT REGULATES THE REGIME OF DEDICATION TO THE STUDY OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AT UDC (Arts. 2.3; 3. b; 4.3 and 7.5) (05/04/2017) or those who are on board at the time the practices are given, could be exempted from complying with all 80% of the simulation exercises as long as the faculty considers that their experience on board could compensate part, or all, of the assistance. In this case, the teaching staff will decide what type of evaluation will be carried out on the student to be sure that they have acquired the corresponding skills. This evaluation could also be carried out in 1st or 2nd year chance.

The evaluation criteria contemplated in tables A-II/1 of the STCW Code related to this matter and included in the Quality Assurance System will be taken into account when designing and carrying out the evaluation.

The fraudulent completion of the tests or evaluation activities, once verified, will directly imply the grade of failing "0" in the subject in the corresponding call, thus invalidating any grade obtained in all the evaluation activities with the face uncovered in the extraordinary call.
