Annotation -
The course is focused on the effective use of Microsoft Office suite programs. The aim is to teach students how to professionally process extensive text documents (such as conservation reports, etc.) containing graphic information, and to utilize the Excel table processor. Students will become familiar with and learn to use EndNote for managing and working with bibliographic information within text documents. A significant portion of the course is dedicated to the technical processing of photographs using Adobe Photoshop or similar freely available alternatives such as Photopea. Emphasis is also placed on working with information databases and managing bibliographic data.
