    Se presenta la aplicación de un método docente alternativo en la enseñanza de la materia “Hidrodinámica, Resistencia y Propulsión”, en las titulaciones vinculadas con Ingeniería Naval. El procedimiento pedagógico persigue la consecución de las competencias pertinentes en los campos de análisis y de diseño de embarcaciones. Se apuesta por la enseñanza mixta presencial (on-line), siendo la supervisión de trabajos un ingrediente relevante. Como herramientas docentes, las Tecnologías de la Información y de las Comunicaciones (TICs), así como la Dinámica de Fluidos Computacional (CFD), juegan un papel decisivo en la propuesta. Se aplica el modelo de Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos. La satisfacción de los estudiantes se evalúa a través de cuestionarios.

    An alternative teaching-learning methodology for the subject "Hydrodynamic, Resistance and Propulsion" in Degrees concerned with NAval Engineering, is presented. The goal of the pedagogical approach is the acquirement of appropiate skills related to the ability of analyzing and designing different types of ships. The blended learning concept is employed, including the supervised learnin as key ingredient. The roles of both Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), as educational tuools, are some specific features of the methodology. A pedagocial method that involves project based learning, using CFD, is applied. The evaluation of the student satisfaction is conducted by questionaries.
