Instructions for participants of the e-course Security and Privacy in the Digital Environment

Types of Content in the E‑Course

Educational multimedia materials (primarily text‑based), such as lessons and pages, are available in the Loomen system and can be opened directly in a web browser. All materials can also be downloaded in PDF format. For this reason, users need to have a PDF reader installed. If using browsers such as Firefox or Chrome, a separate PDF reader is not required because PDFs can be opened directly in the browser.

Video lessons are originally hosted on CARNET’s multimedia portal Meduza and are integrated into Loomen pages, allowing access without leaving the Loomen system. To watch video lessons, an internet connection of at least 2 Mbit/s is required. In addition, headphones or speakers are needed.

The practical part of the assignment is completed using a spreadsheet application, so participants must have an appropriate tool installed, preferably MS Excel.

Assessment activities in the e‑course are supported by the built‑in functionalities of the Loomen system, and no additional technical requirements are needed. Quizzes open entirely within the web browser, and no further technical prerequisites are required.

Synchronous activities in the course are conducted using the Big Blue Button platform, which is integrated into Loomen. The technical requirements for participating in synchronous sessions include a microphone, headphones, and an internet connection (preferably 5 Mbit/s or higher).
