To acquire an operational preparation in addition to the basic one that allows students to understand the functioning of some computer tools and to know how to use them in real application contexts where the management of documents and archives takes place in a digital environment.

In the course we will explore, also from a practical point of view regarding their use, the following topics:

• Meaning and implications of the term digital
• The computer document: nature, requirements
• Electronic signatures and digital signature
• Electronic time validation and time stamping
• Certified electronic delivery services and PEC
• SPID and Digital Identity
• Personal protection tools
• Data protection techniques (overview)
• Biometric and access control systems (strong authentication)
• Archives and databases

No propaedeuticity is provided. However, prior knowledge of basic computer science concepts is recommended.

At the end of the course, the student should:

• have acquired a knowledge and an ability to understand the IT tools used to manage documents and archives in a digital environment;
• be able to apply their knowledge and understanding in a working context in order to solve problems related to the computer management of digital documents and archives with a professional approach;
• be able to acquire information and/or data useful for reflection, the formulation of hypotheses and the determination of autonomous judgments on the use that Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can have in a work context for the management of digital documents;
• be able to clearly communicate knowledge, ideas, problems and solutions on the use of ICT in computer document management to specialist and non-specialist interlocutors;
• to be able to study and learn independently how to use and employ Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for computer document management in a work context.

Course books

• Chiara Frigerio, Fabio Maccaferri - Federico rajola, ICT e società dell'informazione, McGraw-Hill, Milano, 2019.
• Teaching material made available by the teacher on the Blended Learning platform, and consisting of: handouts, exercises, slides, scientific articles.

Assessment

The examination consists of a proficiency test. This means that no grades are given, but only the status of "fit" (or "unfit"). (or not suitable)

The final assessment of learning is written and aimed at ascertaining the knowledge and understanding of the concepts presented in class, as well as their practical application to real cases.

The final assessment test will consist of tests with multiple-choice, multiple-choice, true or false, open-ended questions and questions based on the resolution of simple case studies consistent with those analyzed during the lessons in the classroom (and reported in the teaching materials available on the website of the course).

The qualification will be achieved by answering 75% of the questions correctly. 

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.
