I am also interested in innovative learning in higher education, as well as digital impact on consumption and learning in sport. https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7269-6524

La necessite d’aborder un sujet aussi complexe comme le dopage est donne par une preoccupation pas seulement dans le monde du sport, mais aussi dans l’espace public. Des nombreux exemples montrent le croissant interet scientifique et une plus grande couverture mediatique. Cependant, on trouve exceptionnellement des etudes rigoureuses dans une persp...
