Members mainly come from two research institutes within the University of Namur:

• the Namur Digital Institute (NaDI) whose research is devoted to the various issues of digital technologies, in their technical, societal, educational, ethical, media, regulatory and management aspects;
• the Institut de Recherche en Didactiques et Éducation de l'Université de Namur (IRDENa) whose mission is to foster the emergence of new research objects and methodologies in the field of education, stemming from a variety of disciplinary anchors.

The twenty or so members, academics and researchers, active within the Chair currently fall into seven disciplinary fields: computer science, computer didactics, media and digital literacy, information literacy, educational science, science and technology studies and gender studies. In order to enrich the issues addressed, the Chair will of course be open to all researchers and academics interested in the theme of digital education within the university.

The members of the Chair have already developed several research projects and activities related to digital education. One of the recent projects is by Guillaume Mele and Charlotte Sine:

• "MOOC: aim for success, become a super student!"

  Funding: UNAMUR

  Based on 20 years' experience of methodological support for students, this project aims to develop personalized, automated online courses on FUN-MOOC, a platform designed primarily to transmit content. The success of the MOOC testifies to the researchers' experience in implementing online courses and creating complex pedagogical architectures.
