Learning Objectives

This internship is included in the study plans to give students knowledge that can be used in the various international diving sectors by providing the basic preparation:

• either as a tool that completes your curriculum or adds to it notions and experiences that help to complete your personal path,

• and to open a path towards a professional career in the various fields of diving.

Objectives

Know and apply diving techniques related to various underwater environments.

Develop attention to difficulties that may arise during a dive.

Acquire underwater rescue techniques.

Relate theory to practice in water and immersion.

Know the physiology of modified breathing for diving.

Know the physiological changes in the body during exposure to pressure changes that occur in immersion.

Know the main physical laws that govern diving.

Through gradual exercises, passing from simple to complex and propedeutically, get to greater self-control in immersion.

Know the different diving equipment for autonomous diver.

Properly assemble and disassemble the supplied diving equipment.

Plan to plan your dive according to your limits and skills.

Be aware of the damage that man in immersion can cause to the marine / underwater environment and how to avoid them while respecting nature.

Know the dangerous animals that can be found diving, how to avoid them and first aid in case of contact with them.

Practice the rules of assistance in diving in buddy dives.

Know the main risks in diving.

Know the main causes of diving accidents and how to avoid them.

Know the direct and indirect effects of pressure changes, physiological changes and possible damage due to compression and decompression in immersion.

Know the use of dive tables.

Knowledge and use of basic underwater signals.

Apply the safety rules in immersion as required by the Dive International Agency in compliance with Legislative Decree 81/08 on "Safety at work".

Program

The program is practical and theoretical, consisting of pool sessions in the morning and classroom theory in the afternoon. (For the internship there are no trips to sea necessary for the acquisition of the “diving license of competence”. These dives remain planned and available for those who, after passing the internship phases, intend to continue training privately).

The practical part is divided into skin diving training, freediving with basic equipment and use of underwater respirator.

In practice, among the exercises we have: swimming, use of skin diving equipment, exercises with breathing apparatus, diving systems, trim, self-rescue, transport, assistance, entry and exit from the water, dressing and undressing underwater.

For the theory the applied subjects are: physics for divers, equipment, physiology for divers and diving problems, aquatic/marine environment, compression and decompression, diving tables, preparation and planning.

The standards used comply with Legislative Decree 81/08 "Safety at work" with regard to safety applicable to all phases of training and diving.

Bridging Courses

The theory is presented with a logical sequence that allows the understanding of complex concepts concerning safety in immersion.

The practice is conducted by moving from simple exercises to complex ones both physically and psychologically. The latter is fundamental and normally the only possible barrier to learning.

Teaching Material

The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it

Supporting Activities

To help students in their training, we have made the following handouts available:

Equipment: to help with the purchase of the basic equipment needed for practice in the pool.

Physics for divers: full chapter on the physics of diving in the manual "Openwater Diving" by Massimo Torboli

Main signals for divers: to be used in the pool.

Workbook: to create your own manual with the information received during the internship.

Training: Power Point presentation with 29 slides illustrating practical training in the pool and in the sea.

Photocopies of dive tables.

Topics for the final essay.

Final test of 100 questions (multiple choice, true or false, compilative).

Application of theory to practice: the theory is directed to the immediate use in practice of the various stages of diving. Knowledge of physics, possible diving accidents, planning, etc. are consolidated through specific diving techniques to better understand the essential safety in diving practice.

Learning is fundamentally consolidated through the laws of exercise, effect, intensity and recentness, favoring guided discovery in practice.

Attendance

Punctuality

Discipline

Participation

Responsibility

"As recalled by the Didactic Regulations of the Study Programme, technical-practical activities must be attended for at least two thirds of their duration. With regard to practical-exercise activities, it is specified that attendance means active participation in the lesson.

Assessment

In practice it is the continuous evaluation, during the various sessions, of the progression of learning during the sequential tests of underwater exercises and techniques.

Final review of the most complete and complex diving techniques.

Possible final test with multiple choice questions (mandatory to participate in training at sea).

Essay on a topic chosen from those covered in the course (in the case of distance learning).

Disability and Specific Learning Disorders (SLD)

Students who have registered their disability certification or SLD certification with the Inclusion and Right to Study Office can request to use conceptual maps (for keywords) during exams.

To this end, it is necessary to send the maps, two weeks before the exam date, to the course instructor, who will verify their compliance with the university guidelines and may request modifications.
