Syllabus

Course Objectives

A. By the end of the course, students will be able to understand all different phases related to the design and implementation of web application, from the requirement gathering to the user interface prototyping. They will be able to understand all terms of new technology, and communicate in an efficient way with the development team. They will also be able to develop simple procedures using a server side programming language and know the main building blocks of a complex system, mostly different database management systems. They will understand the architecture of Cloud Computing and Business Intelligent systems, Business Analytics and Data Mining.

B. Course goals: to introduce students to new forms of museum communication, with particular attention to scientific museums.

Course Prerequisites

A. Students should own a base knowledge of Internet, Web, HyperText, HTML and CSS. They also should have digital skills moreover about the usage of the more popular operating systems and application software. For the project (not mandatory), it is also preferred the ability to work on a team, problem solving and leadership.

B. Basic knowledge about digital image and video can favor students especially during the implementation of the project required for the exam. During the course, however, all the necessary content will be provided, with integrations tailored to the needs of attending students.

Teaching Methods

A. The course is structured with frontend lectures, by using slides, and projects. Several tools (such as WordPress, Xampp, PHP editor) will also be used. Students could develop a project aiming to desing a web application following the methodology introduced during lectures.


B. The course is organized in frontal and interactive lessons, visits to the scientific museums of the University Museum System (during which are analyzed multimedia communication techniques and presented ideas for the exam project), optional insights presented by the students and discussed in the classroom. To help create a learning community, students are also urged to write posts and comments in the course blog and to personalize it graphically. The most interesting posts are taken up and discussed in the classroom.

Assessment Methods

A. The final examination consists in a written text with open and multiple questions. Students shall also prove his/her understanding of subjects discussed during the course. Oral examinaton and projects are not mandatory. Project won't be used anyway to compute the final grade.

B. Examination with project implementation and oral test. Project specifications, discussed and decided in detail with attending students, will be indicated on the course blog. In the oral examination, the student, after the presentation of the project, has to demonstrate that he has assimilated and reworked the topics covered during the course. The evaluation will take into account the optional presentation of insights during the lessons and the blog posts.

Texts

A. Reference bibliography and sitography will be provided and discussed during the lessons

B. Reference bibliography and sitography will be provided and discussed during the lessons and indicated in the course blog.

A. Following topics will be covered during the course
- User Centered Design and Value Sensitive Design
- Designing Web Services
- Content Optimization
- Content Management System (Wordpress)
- Relational and Documental Database Management Systems
- Business Intelligence and Business Analytics
- Data Mining and Machine Learning
- Neural Network

B. The objects preserved in museums hide many stories. Discover them can lead the visitors to reacquire their cultural tradition and to improve the feeling of belonging to an open community. The museums’ staff and the visitors can enrich each other, collaborating in discovering new forms of understanding and new forms of narration of the collections. Many are actually the choices made by the various museums, ranging from the use of augmented reality to the internal, external or participatory digital storytelling, both for the permanent and the temporary exhibitions. Some of these choices will be analyzed in detail. During the course the students will be allowed to require and or offer insights on topics of their own interests, which will be discussed in the classroom. Visiting (during the course) the science museums of our university is a preliminary requirement to the development of the students’ project; the visit might then be repeated to analyse in depth specific aspects of interest in cooperation with the curators.
