University World News - FRANCE: 'Digital university' makes progress

University World News - FRANCE: 'Digital university' makes progress: "Presenting results of the programme after its first year, Pcresse said: 'For universities to remain attractive to students, to improve their image in the world of education, it is essential for them to be equipped with innovatory digital tools and services.'

The Wi-fi, podcast, digital environment for all programme was launched in July last year in response to a 2008 report by Henri Isaac, a lecturer at Paris-Dauphine University.

Isaac had warned that France was lagging behind in information and communication technologies in higher education and urgently needed to catch up to satisfy the demands of the new generation of 'digitally native' students."
