The Master 120 offers a dynamic and original teaching method. Students are invited to perform a number of teaching activities, both individually and in groups. These activities are subject to regular ongoing assessment.
Numerous courses offer an integrated approach, which sometimes translates into a joint timetable within which a student progresses, starting with a single goal, in the light of diverse and complementary perspectives and practices. The students will be observed by researchers working internationally and by renowned experts. This interconnection forms a distinctive teaching framework consisting of critical analysis and involvement in the real world of communication and its technological, social and political challenges. The training is aimed at both technical performance and intellectual independence.
Methods promoting interdisciplinarity:
The unique characteristics of information and communication sciences naturally favour interdisciplinarity. The diverse training of the teachers is a reflection and guarantee of this. In addition, the Master 120 students work alongside those pursuing the Master 60 course. The latter are mainly from a variety of disciplines (humanities, human sciences and exact sciences). This mixture ensures the genuine interdisciplinarity and openness required for Information and Communication. In addition, a number of interdisciplinary approaches are offered by the provision of classes with other Departments, Faculties or Universities by means of special agreements.
Variety of teaching strategies (including e-learning):
Depending on the subjects taught, the teaching is aimed at acquiring knowledge and analytical aptitude. In all cases, it is intended to encourage intellectual and practical independence. Practical independence is particularly required for the completion of projects and assignments, both individually and as part of a group. The use of “smart technologies” is one of the cornerstones of the teaching strategy in place: since this is communication training, students are introduced to the technologies and software appropriate to their sector of activity and invited to use them within their course. Some classes or course segments therefore make use of the iCampus platform or websites created for this purpose.
Diversity of learning situations:
The students are invited to take part in traditional teaching activities: lectures, seminars and workshops. They will work individually or in groups. They will be subject to regular ongoing assessment by examinations. They will also have to produce a thesis or work placement report. Finally, a large number of courses offer e-learning facilities (provision of resources and exercises, education management, sharing and collective assessment of work).
