Three scenarios are considered in order to adapt to the possible evolution of the pandemic by the Covid-19.
SCENARIO 1: Adapted normality.
Classroom activities consist of:
a) Lectures. Skills developed: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2 y CT19
b) Seminars. Skills developed: FB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17 y CT19
c) Practicals. The software Autocad for Windows and SketchUp Free will be used. Skills developed: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT4, CT15, CT17 y CT19
d) Group tutorials. Skills developed: FB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17 y CT19
e) Individual tutorials.
Individual activities consist of:
f) Study of audiovisual material provided for flipped classroom sessions. Skills developed FB5, CB6, CT2, CT4 y CT19.
g) Working through the exercise collections available at the virtual campus. Skills developed: FB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17, CT19.
h) Individual assignments. The software Autocad for Windows and SketchUp Free will be used. Skills developed: FB5, CG6, CT2, CT4, CT15, CT17, CT19.
i) Other activities: virtual campus test, contest, etc. Skills developed FB5, CB5, CG6, CT4, CT15, CT17, CT19.
j) Complementary e-learning with the Virtual Campus and MS Teams.
SCENARIO 2: Distance
The following changes are made with respect to Scenario 1:
a) Lectures
They are performed remotely synchronously through MS Teams software.
c) Practicals
They will be on a face-to-face basis. If necessary, up to 50% could be taught online.
d) Group tutorials
They will be performed online and synchronously with the MS Teams software.
e) Individual Tutorials
Online and synchronous with the MS Teams software.
The rest of the sessions remain as in Scenario 1.
SCENARIO 3: closing down the facilities
All teaching is developed online.
The sessions of type a) Lectures; b) Seminars; d) Group tutorials and e) Individual tutorials will be carried out synchronously through MS Teams.
Part of the c) practice sessions and the rest of the activities will be carried out asynchronously.
Qualification results of the combination of coursework assessment (40%) and a final examination (60%).
Parts considered are:
COURSE WORK:
- C1: Compulsory manual drawing practicals and assignments (15%). Skills assessed: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17, and CT19
- C2: CAD practicals and assignments (15%). Skills assessed: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT4, CT15, and CT19
- C3: tutorial group classwork (10%). Skills assessed: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT4, CT15, and CT19
FINAL EXAMINATION:
Consists of four parts: one questionnaire on theoretical notions and three exercises. The qualification (F) will be the average of the marks of the four, provided each obtains at least 3 points out of 10. Skills assessed: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17, and CT19
The final examination will be carried out in a face to face basis in Scenario 1. In Scenario 2, it will preferably be carried out on a face-to-face basis whenever possible even though it may be performed telematically if necessary. In Scenario 3, the exam will be telematic.
If done telematically, the final exam will be developed using MS Teams and the Virtual Campus and will be carried out synchronously.
SUBJECT ASSESSMENT
Exams are graded between 0 and 10 points. The course would be passed if:
1st- Final exam qualification (F) is equal to or higher than 4 points.
2nd- Course work qualification (C = 0,375 x C1 + 0,375 x C2 + 0,25 x C3) is equal to or higher than 5 points
3rd- Final qualification FQ = 0.60 F + 0,4 x C is equal to or higher than 5 points.
If the final examination mark is lower than 4 points, C1, C2 and C3 parts will not be considered, resulting FQ = F
This assessment system applies in both, first and second exam calls.
SKILLS ASSESSMENT
C1-Manual drawing practices and assignments: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17, and CT19
C2-CAD practical: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT4, CT15, and CT19
C3-Tutorial group classwork: FB5, CG6, CT15, and CT19
F-Final exam: FB5, CB5, CG6, CT2, CT15, CT17, and CT19
LESSONS ATTENDANCE
Attendance at al least 80% of the practical sessions of the current course (either on a face-to-face basis or online) will be a requirement for taking exams in both first and second, and extraordinary calls.
EXTRAORDINARY CALL
The same rules and conditions than the first and second calls apply here.
COMPATIBILITY
Students who could not attend practical sessions due to excusable reasons must communicate this circumstance to be assigned an alternative learning method.
EXAM REVISION
Students can review their corrections and learn of qualification criteria. Dates for exam review will be announced according to current regulations.
Exam revision is encouraged to all the students to be able to learn from mistakes and receive the appropriate directions to correct them. The teacher may suggest parts to study, and provide additional exercises and materials.
Exam review could be carried out either on a face-to-face basis or remotely through MS Teams.
In the event of fraudulent practices in exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations on the Evaluation of Students' Academic Performance and the Review of Grades shall apply.
The total course workload is estimated at 150 hours (6 ECTS credits). 58 hours are scheduled for classroom activities (lectures, tutorials, practicals and examinations); students will assign 92 additional hours of individual work. Time distribution is:
- Lectures: 28 hours in the classroom and 42 hours of personal work.
- Seminars: 6 classroom hours and 9 of personal work
- Laboratory practicals; 15 classroom hours and 8 of personal work
- Group tutorials; 2 classroom hours and 8 of personal work
- Individual tutorials: 2 classroom hours and 3 of personal work
- Examination and review: 5 classroom hours and 22 of personal work
The course progression requires punctual study to assimilate the new concepts explained in each session.
The development of spatial visualization skills requires time to be exercised. Thus, students must follow the activities suggested at the beginning of the course. Students lacking a previous background in Technical Drawing must realize the extra effort needed, particularly during the first weeks.
Other recommendations:
-Lesson attendance
-Punctual practice work
-Tutorial advice to solve doubts and difficulties, and to pick up additional exercises
-Use of complementary materials through the e-learning tool of Virtual Campus
-Consult the recommended bibliography.
Classes are presented in Galician language. One group will be taught in English.
The virtual campus and MS Teams are the tools to complement the learning process
Software programs AutoCAD for Windows and SketchUp Free will be used throughout the course. Both are available and free for the students.
The use of Windows computers is recommended as the USC does not provide support for other operating systems.
While staying at the centre, students must wear a mask and strictly follow the instructions given by the health authorities and the USC for the prevention of infection by Covid-19.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
METHODOLOGY
Contingency plan for online learning activities:
The sessions that are developed synchronously will keep the schedule established by the centre and will use the telematic resources available at USC: The Virtual Campus and MS Teams.
Due to the contents of the subject, the main difference between classroom teaching and remote teaching is that, in the latter, the exercises will be resolved preferably with computer means instead of manual drawing.
The computer drawing practices will be taught in an asynchronous way, for which explanatory videos will be provided so that the students can follow them at their own pace.
MS Teams, the Virtual Campus forums and the e-mail will be used for individual tutorials and to maintain fluid communication between students and the teacher.
ASSESSMENT SYSTEM
The assessment system is the same regardless of the teaching modality used (face-to-face or online). In the case of the final exam being taken by telematic means, it will be held synchronously and preference will be given to the resolution of the exercises through the use of the computer.
