AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

During the teaching are addressed the technical, technological and compositional characteristics typical of the sailing nautical product,

The final objective is to obtain the project awareness that the future designer must acquire in order to be able to control the design of any nautical product, configuring it in response to the specific requirements characterizing the expectations of the product itself.

With the support of the lessons and through the elaboration of a project the students will have to demonstrate the learning of project tools such as:

• research and analysis
• ideation and concept design
• development of the concept from the meta-project to the project

- elaboration and drafting of graphic drawings

- sketches, technical drawings, models

- complete illustration of the project (from the conception to the final form) in graphic and oral form.

TEACHING METHODS

Teaching is organized in different and complementary activities, the main ones are:

- theoretical lectures and seminars

- educational visits

- practical applications (ex-tempore)

- project activity

EXAM DESCRIPTION

The exam consists in the delivery and evaluation of all the intermediate works realized within the course and in the presentation of a final project complete and controlled in all the compositional and graphic aspects.

During the examination, together with the delivery of the drawings, a further oral examination of the acquired knowledge is foreseen, by discussing the presented project.

ASSESSMENT METHODS

The evaluation of the project consists in the verification of the graphic elaboration considering the coherence with the project's initial input, the correctness and completeness of the graphic restitution with respect to the developed theme/subject.

The oral examination will complete the test verifying the maturity of the student, the presentation skills that distinguish the student and as well as his/her interest in the discipline.
