C’est pourquoi la spécificité de ce master est d’aborder la e-formation sous toutes ses facettes : la pédagogie (ingénierie, ergonomie, tutorat, travaux collaboratifs et web 2.0), la technologie (outils, informatique), mais aussi l’environnement (retour sur investissement d’un dispositif, commercialisation d’un dispositif).
