This module will prepare students to be able to face the day-to-day problems occurring with networked PC computers. It will look at how organisations can help prevent most problems through effective policies, good daily practice and professional preventative measures. The legal framework will be examined as a context in which to place such policies, practice and measures.
Teaching and assessment will feature the use of real and realistic case studies so that students can test their knowledge and techniques in as authentic a way possible.
Students will produce immediate solutions to problems and review the incidents in order to prevent further occurrences and develop new policies.
Assessment is by way of examination, based on a case-study.
