The main objective of the course is the acquisition of skills in the field (i) of the observation and critical analysis (i.i) of the phenomenon of computerization of the social dimension as well as (i.ii.) of information and technology systems; (ii) the role of law in understanding and regulating information technologies.

The Legal informatics program provides:

• Introduction to legal informatics
• Knowledge society and data society
• Computers and information processing
• Digital identity, data protection and security
• Digital administration, Electronic document, Electronic signatures
• Legal informatics for business relations and processes
• New digital goods

Expect students to be able to acquire:

a) knowledge and understanding of the legal informatics issues sufficiently detailed to develop autonomous critical evaluation skills and an adequate cultural and methodological sensitivity useful for the interpretation of complex phenomena that law is called upon to regulate.

b) ability to apply knowledge and understanding, in particular: specific aptitude to apply the legal informatics principles; specific aptitude for recognizing and contextualising on a legal informatics point of view the nature and implications of the legal systems; ability to autonomously integrate their knowledge; aptitude to conceive and support personal opinions and to support on the argumentative level specific solutions to complex problems, especially of current relevance; ability to proceed with learning with autonomy and critical sense, capacity that the teacher will encourage throughout the teaching and will be subject to particularly careful evaluation during the examination.

c) making judgments, in particular: ability to interpret, analyze and qualify the relationship between facts of reality and legal case, so as to be able to identify, represent and resolve issues of legal informatics importance.

d) communication skills, in particular: ability to describe and deepen the legal problems related to legal informatics; ability to illustrate the logical-legal paths that lead to the solution of the theoretical and applied problems posed; ability to convince and display arguments, even in contradiction with other subjects.

e) learning skills, in particular: ability and possession of the basic tools for the constant updating of their skills in this area; ability to understand the complexity of legal phenomena; ability to autonomously follow the evolution of the issues addressed and to deepen it using all the knowledge, even instrumental, necessary and acquired during the course of study.

Assessment

The exam consists of an oral discussion concerning the topics dealt with in the reference texts indicated above as well as in the materials provided by the Professor. The oral interview mode allows to evaluate in the most complete way, as well as the student's communication skills, the acquisition of analytical and critical skills required to the student in consideration of the complexity of the topics and arguments subject of the course of which he must demonstrate the knowledge and understanding.

The expected learning results will be evaluated by means of an oral exam, based on three questions or more. The evaluation criteria and the scale of marks are as follows:

• less than 18/30: competence level insufficient. The student doesn’t reach the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”.
• 18-20: competence level sufficient. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”.
• 21-23: competence level satisfactory. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding” and in “applied knowledge and understanding”.
• 24-26: competence level good. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”, “applied knowledge and understanding” and “making judgments”.
• 27-29: competence level very good. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”, “applied knowledge and understanding”, “making judgments” and “communication skills”.
• 30-30 with honours: competence level excellent. The student fully attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”, “applied knowledge and understanding”, “making judgments” and “learning skills”.

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.

Teaching

Non-attending students are required to perform all the planned parts through individual study.

We point out the possibility of using the materials and teaching methods that will take place through the blended platform.

Attendance

The study of the texts identified for the exam program must be studied in depth and aim to achieve the expected learning outcomes.

In the Department is active "Olympus", the Observatory for permanent monitoring of legislation and case law on health and safety in the workplace work. The Observatory carries out various activities including, in particular: - the management of a website with legislative databases, case law databases and databases of contracts, all concerning the safety at work, - depth articles, specialized reviews and thematic focus; - the management of an online scientific journal - "The Working Papers of Olympus", soon destined to mutate into "Law of occupational Safety and Health" (DSL) - in the field of security rights in the workplace, with ISSN, that employs a wide international scientific committee and refereeing procedures for the identification of essays to be published; - The organization of congresses and seminars including international ones. This observatory, whose website is freely accessible to all in a logic of public service, allows students of the CdS to find useful materials and documentation for their course of study and useful to draft their dissertation. It offers, also, through the mentioned congresses and seminars, the opportunity to meet the leading experts in the field and to analyse the most sensitive issues relating to it. http://olympus.uniurb.it/
