Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to unify and consolidate the basic knowledge of the previous types of study, to get acquainted with the basic concepts and a comprehensive introduction to the theoretical basics of informatics.
A student who has successfully completed the course can: explain basic concepts of information theory and informatics; distinguish approaches to the concept of information; characterize sources of information; explain the communication chain and signal transmission through the communication chain; to characterize the model, system and system approach; describe cyber terms; explain logic functions and ways of minimizing them. A student who has successfully completed the course can: use formulas to calculate basic variables; define data and information; use the communication string; convert text into binary code; control the conversion of a logic function to a minimized shape. The student who has successfully completed the course is able to: summarize clearly the views of other team members; to communicate comprehensibly and convincingly to professionals and laymen information on the theoretical foundations of informatics and is able to give their own opinion on their solution.
