Learning outcomes

The course will focus on those topics in the field of information technology that can benefit the professional historian in his professional work or popularization of the results of historical research. It will present a wide range of programs that can be used in the historical field (database and genealogical software, presentation programs, audio editors, video editors, etc.), while the spectrum of software resources will focus on freeware programs.
The graduate of the course will gain a basic orientation in the range of possibilities that the rapidly developing field of information technology provides for history as a science or general education subject. On a more concrete level, the graduate will gain a comprehensive understanding of appropriate sources of historical material from the Internet. Through specific training, the student will then learn how to use typical software tools that can benefit him or her in the profession of historian or in popularization activities of a historical nature. After the course, the student will be able to: - create various types of electronic presentations, based on respect for formal, pedagogical and psychological, as well as professional requirements for their presentation - make appropriate use of selected software tools for editing historical material, source base, specific attention will be oriented to editing audio material of historical character (testimony of a witness) - prepare a genealogical chart using one of the genealogical programs; - to create a simple, useful and clear database based on a selected historical source of a statistical nature.
