TSM's Digital Teaching Strategy

Digital technology is changing our access to knowledge and the way we train tomorrow's professionals. TSM is committed to distance and hybrid learning. For TSM, students' success in a ever-changing world is our top priority.

Distance and Blended Learning to Provide Ever Better Support for TSM Students

“Digitalisation contributes to the quality of teaching, to the harmonisation of courses. It leads to a rethinking of digital tools and pedagogical practices.”
Christelle Théron, associate professor, Pedagogical innovation and digitalisation project manager

Thanks to digital technology, TSM is developing distance and hybrid learning.

By adapting our teaching practices, we help students to acquire cross-disciplinary skills that are valued in the professional world: teamwork, autonomy, flexibility...

We also train them to use the digital tools necessary for their professional integration: collaborative tools, presentation and videoconferencing tools, etc.

Moreover, thanks to these tools, we facilitate interaction between teachers and students and we strengthen the pedagogical monitoring.

“An online course has the advantage of offering a level of personalised learning that is not possible in a traditional course. Remotely, when an activity path is created online, it is immediately clear whether the student has successfully completed the exercise or not.”
Christelle Théron, associate professor, Pedagogical innovation and digitalisation project manager

In order to maintain socialisation between students and a good group dynamic as well as optimal supervision, we also strive to favour blended-mode learning in order to combine the advantages of e-learning with the benefits of face-to-face courses.

TSM's Digiteam: a Service Dedicated to Digital Transformation

The Digiteam is one of the services dedicated to digital transformation. It supports teachers in the choice of digital tools and adapted teaching methods and in the creation of teaching resources. More specifically, it manages the TSM Academy platform.

TSM Academy

The TSM Academy is TSM's online learning platform. It offers an innovative learning experience, promoting interactivity and individual feedback with stimulating content, organised in journeys, collaborative activities and exchanges on discussion forums.
TSM students have access to a personalised space that allows them to:

follow their results and progress easily, thus developing their metacognitive capacities,
quickly build up skills with comprehensive and engaging content,
exchange with each other and with teachers via the forums associated with the teaching activities.

The TSM Academy through TSM Students' Eyes

I appreciate the asynchronous sessions that we can complete before the online session or during the week.
Really ergonomic and cool to use .
Victor Boudet, Bachelor 3 International Management (2020-2021)

I like the multiple choice questions with the direct correct answer immediately after, the emojis, and the % of people getting the correct and wrong answers to know if I am below the average.
I think that it is a very cool platform, it makes it more interactive and it motivate us a little because we see we are not abandoned and that TSM is trying to improve its educational methods for us, thank you :)
Romina Barrios Riofrio, Bachelor 3 International Management (2020-2021)

Experiencing Remote Learning

Online classes in the current context was challenging but we found many ways to stay united and sometimes have some fun. The promo WhatsApp group was a good way to express our frustration and to laugh together or about ourselves. Memes and gifs are for sure one of the best inventions of the last decade. To have the possibility to make videos as assignments was the highlight of the year. You feel like Spielberg or Ava DuVernay and you can also feel like Keanu Reeves or Viola Davis, while acquiring experience in teamwork. The Challenge Me platform was also a great tool for evaluating between peers. It’s complete and it forces you to give constructive feedback. For future managers, learning how to give feedback is, I believe, mandatory. It wasn’t always easy to be far away from each other and the exam/report period was intense. However, at the end, what can I say? We were given lemons and we made lemonade.
