Short presentation of the institution's involvement in the project

The CEGEP coordinated the work of intellectual production 2.

This production includes a research work on Quebec's policies on the governance and management of digital technology in schools and a short video produced by the CEGEP in collaboration with the ICP highlighting an innovative practice in terms of management and support for teachers to assist them in their digital teaching practices. Finally, posters presenting the highlights were produced for intellectual productions 1 and 2.
