Course content and structure |
The course offers an introduction to the most significant issues
about the regulation and governance of digital business. It
provides an encompassing and overall view about key aspects that
regulate and govern the context in which businesses develop digital
solutions and the context in which digital-based new business
models operate. In so doing, the course develops the analytical
skills of the students in terms of understanding, describing, and
explaining the relevance of these different aspects of regulation
and governance of digital matters, as an essential context for
digital business management. The course will deal, among others,
with issues like: data privacy regulations and compliance, digital
business and competition regulations, global Internet governance,
digital infrastructure, public policies fostering digital
transformation, public and private dimensions of cybersecurity, and
ethics and responsibility in the digital era.

Description of the teaching methods |
The course combines lectures based on the
curriculum of the course, with the use of case method teaching, and
the development of specific workshops that focus on particularly
relevant and contemporary topics. |
Feedback during the teaching period |
There will be many different forms of feed-back
to the students during the course and after it. The teacher will
always be available during office hours, to give feed-back or
answer questions from students. The lectures will be interactive
and participatory and students will get response from the teacher
to their questions, remarks or discussions. The teacher will make
use of blended learning techniques in order to give concrete
feed-back to the students (f.ex. using IT-tools like Socrative
during or after lectures). In the sessions dedicated to the case
method, the students will get feed-back in the plenary. After the
course is finished, the course coordinator will give collective
feed-back to the students about their exam assignments. |
