Benefits in the deck cadet training evaluation by rubrics
Isalgué Buxeda, Antonio; Martínez de Osés, Francesc Xavier; Torné Reverté, Alfredo
Abstract. Recently, in our school we have changed the way of evaluating the deck cadet
training we had used for years through a rubrics-based evaluation system. In this paper we
explain and justify the changes we have incorporated, and also the benefits that we obtain and
the contributions to the learning of the students that the new system of evaluation gives us.

The evolution of female figures in met institutions over a decade : some case studies
Barahona Fuentes, Claudia; Castells Sanabra, Marcel·la; Ordás Jiménez, Santiago; Torralbo Gavilán, Jordi
Although the figures of female students in technical studies have increased in recent years, in MET male students still greatly outnumber female ones. This inequality is transferred to the maritime professional sector, where the proportion of women in different types of jobs and management positions is still far from the desirable expectations.This study analyses the enrolment and graduation figures of female students in several MET institutions over the last decade (2009-2018) with the aim of providing a better understanding of the current situation. This analysis also considers the gender policies applied in the different centres over the same period of timeto determine their effectiveness over female student enrolment. The results reveal that thisgender imbalance persists in all the institutions analysed and that there is no evident raising trend concerning the figures of female students enrolled and graduatedover the last decade for the centres examined. In addition, gender equality promotion policies are still scarce or inexistentand have had a limited effect on female enrolment figures. Thus, it can be concluded that much remainsto be done to improve the present situation and to overcome this gender gap in MET. Some proposals presentedin this paper includethe joint development of gender equity policies by national maritime administrations and international maritime organisations and agencies, the incorporation of female student promotion policies at earlier educational stagesand the analysis of female students’ expectations and motivations for choosing maritime studies

The evolution of shipping industry in terms of bigger and more powerful ships, is causing several issues in existing ports and marinas designed, initially, to host smaller vessels with smaller propulsion systems and lower drafts, such as harbour basin erosion near quay walls, deposited zones in low frequented areas and reduction of operational areas. Previous studies concluded that main problems come from regular vessels such as ferries, which dock and undock frequently in the same quays performing the same manoeuvres. This contribution deals with a method to reproduce real ship manoeuvres in a full mission ship imulator obtained through Automatic Identification System (AIS) data analysis. A faithful reproduction permits to extract propeller and propulsion variables, which, in turn, allow the study of the scouring action using literature formulae. Results obtained show that AIS data can be used to obtain manoeuvring patterns, allowing the study of the scouring action for every particular case depending on vessel type, manoeuvre or met-ocean conditions.
