Presentation
This U.C. is intended to provide Master's students with the indispensable theoretical and technical training necessary for the development of research capabilities leading to the future organization of the Dissertation/Project/Internship. Thus, the contents to be developed cover the successive phases of how the research project is organized, implemented and evaluated, as well as the aim of providing students with the instruments and techniques necessary for any investigation. This U.C. It thus appears to be relevant both for the development of the dissertation and for providing instruments and techniques that students can use within the scope of other UCs.

Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
The online distance learning methodology is based on student-centered learning, with a primacy on flexibility, with a primacy on interaction and with a principle on digital inclusion. These guidelines guide the organization of the entire teaching-learning process, guide the role of the student and teacher, the planning, design and management of learning activities to be proposed to students, the typology of materials to be developed and the nature of the assessment of acquired skills, with the following distribution: Synchronous (TP): Virtual class, Discussion forum, Tutoring session, and evaluation hours distributed by oral presentation and reports or tests. The hours of asynchronous work are also distributed in the analysis of scientific articles/works, analysis of materials in digital format, simulation and quizzes. Autonomous work is divided into autonomous research and required reading.
