Contingency plan: scenarios defined in “DIRECTRICES PARA O DESENVOLVEMENTO DUNHA DOCENCIA PRESENCIAL SEGURA CURSO 2020-2021” of the University of Santiago de Compostela. See “Observations”.
CLASSROOMS:
In-person classes: preferent option for those activities defined as ·”preferably in-person” and exclusive for those activities defines as “exclusively in-person”. To be applied in scenarios 1 and 2.
Virtual course: complementary option for those activities which partial in-present mode is permitted and unique option for those activities for which the virtual mode is mandatory. Classes in TEAMS environment. To be applied in scenarios 2 and 3.
E-learning (off-line): Virtual Campus. Support for both the teaching modes (virtual and in-person). It will afford technical limitations of the online modes via TEAMS. It Will function as repository of classnotes, slides, audios, videos and exercises and practical exercises. It also will be used for exercises collection and communications with the students.
STRATEGY: blended-learning
Combining in-person courses + virtual campus+ e-learning. Scenarios 1 y 2.
Combining virtual campus+ e-learning when only virtual teaching is permitted. Scenario 3.
EVALUATION: Continuous for the 3 scenarios. Based in scheduled exercises delivery through the Virtual Campus.

V
The assessment of students skills will be performed as follows:
-70% of final mark is be obtained from the evaluation of expositive classes, seminars and tutorials.
-30% of final grade is obtained from computer room practices (processes simulation in AspenHysys).
EXPOSITIVE CLASSES. SEMINARS GROUP TUTORIALS.
-A team group must be developed and uploaded to the Virtual Campus (Task tool). 20 % of total mark.
-Collaborative activity. To be developed using the wiki tool in Virtual Campus. 20 % of total mark.
- Individual activity designed as discussion of technical documents. To be uploaded Virtual Campus (Task tool). 20 % of total mark.
-Final exam designed as a template to be filled by the students. It can be developed in-person or uploaded to Virtual Campus. (scenarios 2 and 3). 20 % of total mark.
-Group tutorials (debate). It can be either in-person or virtual (scenarios 2 and 3). 10 % of total mark.
-Teacher inform. The students proactivity and informs about the tasks development Will be considered 10% of total mark.
To add this mark, the students must obtain at least a 30% of maximum mark. In the contrary, this grade Will not be considered in the calculation of final grade.
The simulation practises will be assessed considering the teacher informe (5%) and the quealitu and completeness of the files uploaded to Virtual Campus (25%).
In case of fail of the assessment at the first opportunity, the students must complete an exam containing all the expositive part, seminar and group tutorials. Thus exam can be in-person or completed into the Virtual Campus (scenarios 2 and 3). The continuous assessment Will account for 40% of total mark and the exam 60%.
In case of fail of Hysys simulation, the stidents must upload a new corrected file at the second opportunity.
COMPUTER SIMULATION CLASSES
Assessment will be performed by examining the individual work to obtain a teacher inform about the individual skills and by uploading partial and final simulation files. For that, the practises will be in-person for scenario 1 and on-line via TEAMS in scenarios 2 and 3. The students will use the Virtual Personal Network to connect the licenses files.
The mark obtained in this activity will be maintained in the second opportunity.

CONTINGENCY PLAN DUE TO COVID-19
The contingency plan includes the following elements:
1-Scenarios
2-Inventory of resources
3-Action strategy
Scenario 1: "Adapted normality"
This scenario is characterized by the coexistence of "normal living" with several restriction measures, population self-protection (use of facial masks, use of disinfecting gels, etc.) and the maintaining of accessing restrictions to avoid crowded spaces. joining together indoors.
The measures taken to adapt the teaching to this scenario are the following: The expositive classes will be developed mainly in-person. Tutorials can be performed online (recommended). The laboratory practices will take place preferably in-person. It is recommended to establish short stay times for the different groups of students. The continuous evaluation mode is recommended, either as the unique method or combined with final exams, which must be preferably in-person. The access to the materials that form the basic bibliography (books, scientific articles, Web pages, protocols, tutorials, etc.) must be guaranteed.
Escenario 2: "Social distancing".
Several mandatory protective measures will be applied in this context, such as keeping safety physical distancing among persons, the use of facial masks, and adopting organizational measures to control the access and capacity of faculties. The measures taken to adapt the teaching are the following: In-person teaching will coexist with virtual teaching. Short rotation times must be considered for the laboratory classes, ensuring all the students follow the same time in-person. Continuous evaluation must be the preferent assessing method, although can be combined with final exams. Final exams will be performed online. The access to the materials that form the basic bibliography (books, scientific articles, Web pages, protocols, tutorials, etc.) must be guaranteed.
Scenario 3: "Confinement"
The faculties will be closed. This scenario Will be applied if total closure is determined by the authorities. Only essential activities remain opened to public. The measures applied to ensure teaching in this scenario are the following: teaching will be only online, either by synchronous or asynchronous methodologies. Continuous assessment must be the methodology preferred, although it can be combined with online final exams. No in-person exams can be considered. The access to the materials that form the basic bibliography (books, scientific articles, Web pages, protocols, tutorials, etc.) must be guaranteed.
