Educational objectives EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
The course is designed to provide students with knowledge and skills, basic and advanced, aimed at statistical data analysis. Through the use of specifically dedicated software, the application of innovative teaching strategies (learning by doing¸ problem solving, cooperative learning, etc.) and the enhancement of experiences and testimonies of professionals in the field (variously connected with institutions, associations, companies), the objective is to transmit practical knowledge and critical awareness in: selecting and querying accredited statistical sources; preparing and checking data; analyzing and synthesizing data at different levels and in a comparative key; interpreting and communicating results; and reporting.
1. Knowledge and Understanding
The course aims to provide the skills necessary to be able to consciously use differentiated techniques of quantitative data analysis. Students will be guided through a shrewd descriptive statistics course that will enable them to use data from external sources (secondary data analysis); construct a data matrix; check/evaluate and analyze data; interpret results; and consciously use the most appropriate graphical-tabular representation techniques.
2. Ability to Apply Knowledge and Understanding
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to navigate the use of basic and advanced data analysis procedures; know how to appropriately choose the most relevant forms of representation; know how to make use of secondary data and metadata; and know how to interpret the results of such analyses.
3. Critical and Judgmental Skills
The student will acquire the ability to develop an analysis plan and to determine the appropriateness of the data and statistical techniques applied in relation to the analysis objectives.
4. Ability to communicate what has been learned
Through constant classroom exercises and the performance of group project works, the student will be able to describe, including in the context of public presentation/discussion opportunities, the rationale for the analyses performed and to communicate the results concisely and effectively, using appropriate and rigorous language.
5. Ability to continue studying independently
The student will be able to apply, in an original way, descriptive statistical techniques to any thematic domain of interest. In addition, he/she will be able to independently update and expand his/her knowledge by appropriately selecting databases, official reports and sources. Finally, he/she will be able to autonomously interpret the results of research already carried out in differentiated domains, developing a critical reading and comparative skills. The skills he/she will acquire will be fully expendable in business and marketing research (corporate and brand positioning strategies; customer satisfaction; reputation analysis of companies, brands, products/services, etc.).
6. Expected Outcomes:
The student will learn, from a theoretical and application perspective, the main techniques of descriptive statistics to independently and consciously perform data analysis and to appropriately and effectively communicate the results of such analysis.

Educational objectives General Learning Objectives:
The objective of the course is to contribute to the education of the future professionals who will be able to interact in international contexts and to use written and spoken English, along with specialized lexicon and specific pragmatic competence as effective work tools, both in reception and in production. The course aims at encouraging students' learning autonomy and evaluative capabilities through a series of tools that will allow them to analyze and critically evaluate various text typologies.
Specific Objectives:
1. Knowledge and Learning: The course will start at a general English (B1+/B2) upper-intermediate level and should reach a C1/C1+ level, especially as regards the analysis of specialised texts and materials. Students are therefore expected to have an intermediate level of English at the beginning of the course.
2. Ability to apply knowledge acquired: Students are encouraged to study the theoretical aspects of the language and do various types of activities manly dealing with academic English, and the use of English in business, marketing and promotional language. This allows students to apply their theoretical knowledge through the use of specific study techniques and exercises, such as oral presentations and the writing of a paper.
3. Students’ ability to evaluate texts: Students are particularly encouraged to become autonomous learners and to develop their critical abilities in the analysis of various types of texts and their content. They should be able to assess their own performance and that of their colleagues.
4. Communicative ability: Through an interactive didactic approach, students are encouraged to actively participate in class activities through the use of presentations and discussions. This will help to improve their communication skills in English and to develop and apply what they have learnt during the course.
5. Student learning autonomy: By the end of the course, students will be expected to have acquired a good level of specialized language. This knowledge will allow them to understand specialized texts, to produce texts and to communicate efficiently by using appropriate English forms. These tools are also intended to encourage students to become autonomous learners so that they can progress in the acquisition of specialized English lexis on their own. Moreover, these tools will be particularly useful to students in their future work environment.
