Objectives of the course are a) to provide knowledge and skills that allow the student to use the computer as a tool for the automation of the most common and elementary activities related to information processing and b) to acquire the introductory knowledge of computer systems information, their use and languages for querying databases.
At the end of the course the student:
- has become familiar in using the computer as a tool for the automation of the most common and elementary activities related to information processing
- is able to critically orient itself in the use of simple information processing systems, and carry out some simple queries on these.

The exam consists in a written test with 50 multiple choice questions to be completed in 60 minutes. The test is aimed at verifying the ability to understand the representation of information in computer science such as the binary positional representation, the representation of characters, the representation of images and sounds. To understand elements of the theory of computation, computer hardware architecture, the Python language, computer networks, operating systems (OS) and client-server architectures and languages and systems for database management. In the written exam, the skills of binary-decimal and decimal-binary conversion will be tested. It enables them to use spreadsheets and manage and modify the data they contain.
