Digital Technology for Education
To diversify teaching methods in support of student success and career readiness, the University of Montpellier is leveraging digital technology to address educational challenges.
The University supports and facilitates educational transformation by integrating digital tools into the development of educational resources, equipping academic departments, schools, and institutes, redesigning learning spaces, and upgrading its IT infrastructure.
To this end, it regularly responds to national and European calls for proposals and launches projects on topics such as hybridization, the assessment of knowledge and skills using digital technology, and digital exam rooms.
CNUMF
The University of Montpellier supports the Digital Education Committee, which has issued an annual call for proposals since 2016 to support projects in digital education. The supported projects fall into various categories: the development of new digital educational resources, the use of digital technology for assessment, the creation of MOOCs, and, since the 2022–2023 academic year, the implementation of bimodal hybrid teaching.
AgilHybrid
Since 2021, the University of Montpellier and its three partners within the I-Site MUSE consortium have been strengthening their distance learning capabilities and expanding their range of digital services for students. AgilHybrid receives government funding administered by the Ministry of Higher Education, Research, and Innovation (MESR) under the Economic Recovery Plan, as well as funding from I-Site MUSE.
EquipHybrid
Complementary to AgilHybrid, this project aims to develop the equipment and infrastructure needed for hybrid learning in Montpellier and at the Institut Agro Florac. It receives financial support from the 2014–2020 ERDF-ESF Operational Program for the “NextGenerationEU” European Recovery Plan, as part of the “REACT-EU” initiative.
Digital Assessments and Exams
Since 2019, the University of Montpellier has been implementing several projects to develop an ecosystem for assessing knowledge and skills as part of efforts to make its curriculum more flexible.
