Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The discipline contains two content modules. In the first, general issues of the state monitoring system are considered, existing strategic programs for remote monitoring of the environment and emergency situations are analyzed, existing space missions for Earth observation are outlined (Sentinel, Envisat, Landsat, etc.). Atmospheric monitoring, water resources monitoring, geological and land monitoring are considered. The second module provides an outline of tasks, goals, methods of conducting and analysis of existing materials for monitoring environmental ecology, monitoring natural processes, monitoring in the field of security and defense.
Assessment methods and criteria
The level of achievement of all planned learning outcomes is determined by the results of practical, independent, modular control tasks and the exam. The specific weight of learning results in the final assessment, provided that it is mastered at the appropriate level, is as follows:
- semester assessment:
1. Modular control work 1: 10 points.
2. Modular control work 2: 10 points.
3. Practical works: 30 points.
4. Independent work: 10 points.
Final evaluation: in the form of an exam.
Final evaluation: in the form of an exam.
The final grade from the educational component, the final form of control of which is the exam, is defined as the sum of grades (points) for all successfully assessed study results of 60 points and the exam of 40 points. Scores below the minimum threshold level are not added to the final score.
Mandatory for receiving a positive final grade (60 points and above and "passed") is the completion of all practical work and modular control work.
