Bachelor Degree in Global Governance

Dear All,

in the website you can find the complete set of slides for the section I taught.

Let me remind that as digital transformation and AI, you will have to complement the contents on the slides with videos/materials on the Moodle platform.

Do not hesitate to contact me in case there is something unclear.

All the best

Dear students,

on Friday, 29 May, we will have our final in-class project session. The session will be dedicated to the presentation and discussion of your group projects.

Each group can decide whether to prepare a presentation or a pitch. Since we did not have the opportunity to explore other types of communication outputs together during the course, for this final class we will focus on these two formats.

A presentation is a structured explanation of the project work developed so far. It usually follows the main sections of the analytical report and presents the case, the analysis, the gaps identified, and the proposed alternatives.

A pitch is a shorter and more persuasive format. It still presents the main contents of the project, but it focuses more directly on the value of the proposed alternatives, their relevance, and their potential impact for a specific audience.

In both cases, the purpose is to present the project developed so far, including the main contents that are part of the analytical report. The presentation/pitch should help the group share its work, receive feedback from instructors and from the paired peer group, and use this feedback to revise and improve the final version before uploading it to Moodle.

Each group will have:

* 15 minutes for the presentation/pitch
* 5 minutes for discussion and feedback

During the presentation/pitch, please focus on the following points:

1. Brief introduction of the case and reasons for selecting it
2. Key insights from the context analysis
3. Main features of the current business model
4. Relevant sustainability and/or digital transformation practices
5. Main critical issues, gaps, or misalignments identified
6. Alternative courses of action proposed by the group
7. Expected value, impact, and possible challenges of your proposals

Please remember that the presentation/pitch should not be only descriptive. It should clearly explain the connection between your analysis, the gaps identified, and the alternatives you propose.

Since we did not have the opportunity to carry out the peer review activity earlier, we will use this final session also as a light peer feedback activity. Each group will be paired with another group and will be asked to provide focused feedback during the discussion.

The peer feedback should address, in particular:

* whether the project is clearly presented;
* whether the main findings of the analysis are clear;
* whether the gaps or critical issues identified by the presenting group are understandable;
* whether the proposed alternatives are coherent with the analysis;
* whether the alternatives are sufficiently specific and actionable;
* whether the role of sustainability and/or digital transformation is clear;
* one strength of the project;
* one suggestion for improvement before the final submission.

The peer feedback pairing is the following:

* Patagonia gives feedback to IKEA
* IKEA gives feedback to Incredible Edible Network
* Incredible Edible Network gives feedback to Airbus SE
* Airbus SE gives feedback to Back Market
* Back Market gives feedback to Patagonia

After the final class, each group should use the feedback received from instructors and peers to revise and improve the final work, including both the analytical report and the short presentation/pitch.

The final version of the analytical report and the communication output must be uploaded to Moodle by 9 June, the day before the first exam date, which is scheduled for 10 June.

Best regards 

Dear students,

please carefully read the following clarification regarding assessment methods, study materials, assignments, and course-related activities.

1. Sources for clarification on course requirements

Information regarding the course requirements, assessment methods, and assignments is already available in the documents published on the course website. In particular, students should refer to:

• Syllabus A.Y. 2025/2026;

• Introduction to the course;

• Instructions for individual assignment – non-attending students;

• Instructions for project development – attending students.

These documents explain how the course works, the assessment methods, the study materials, and which activities are required for attending and non-attending students.

2. Non-attending students: assessment and study materials

Non-attending students have two possible assessment options.

Option 1: written exam only

Non-attending students may take the written exam according to the requirements for non-attending students. In this case, the written exam counts for 100% of the final grade.

Option 2: written exam + individual assignment

Non-attending students may choose, if they wish, to complete the individual assignment. In this case, the final grade will be composed as follows:

• written exam: 60%;

• individual assignment: 40%.

The individual assignment for non-attending students is optional, not compulsory.

Therefore, if a non-attending student decides not to complete the individual assignment, they will be assessed through the written exam only.

If a non-attending student voluntarily decides to complete the individual assignment, they must follow the instructions provided in the document Instructions for individual assignment – non-attending students.

As regards the study materials, non-attending students must study:

• the materials available on the platform;

• the course materials available on the course website;

• the textbook chapters indicated in the syllabus for non-attending students.

3. Attending students: assessment, study materials, and course activities

For attending students, the assessment includes:

• written exam: 60%;

• group assignment on digital innovation and innovation for sustainability: 40%.

The programme for attending students is the same as for non-attending students, except for the textbook chapters specifically required for non-attending students.

Attending students are also required to take part in course-related activities connected to classroom participation. These activities may be both individual and group-based, and are designed to support learning during the course.

Since Moodle is also used to exchange materials and organize course-related activities, the sections dedicated specifically to individual activities and group-based activities have now been marked with the label “Only attending”.

These sections and activities are intended for attending students only and are not required for non-attending students.

Students are invited to consult the syllabus and the explanatory documents carefully, as the information on assessment methods, study materials, and assignments is already provided there.
