The instructor will focus on following skills: reasoning, contextualizing, and processing.

L'insegnamento concorre al conseguimento degli obiettivi formativi del Corso di Laurea magistrale in Language Technologies and Digital Humanities fornendo un'adeguata conoscenza dei temi e degli argomenti propri dell'Ontologia applicata (informatica) nell'ambito dell'estetica. Il docente darà particolare rilievo alla capacità di ragionamento, di contestualizzazione e di rielaborazione dello studente.

a) capacità di esposizione e di analisi critica dei contenuti,

b) dominio della terminologia scientifica necessaria,

c) se riconoscerà o stabilirà rapporti e collegamenti di interdipendenza tra le opere studiate.
