Our IREAL Technology Platform

Last Updated On

IREAL (Interactive Remote Experimentation for Active Learning) is an innovative platform developed by the IDEA team at ISAE-SUPAERO to facilitate learning through experimentation in STEM higher education.

An Innovative Solution for Remote Access to Real Scientific Experiments

Launched in 2020, the IREAL platform provides online access to real scientific experiments, digitised directly from physical equipment. Unlike simulations, it offers direct interaction with real devices.

A Response to the Challenges of Cost, Robustness, and Flexibility

IREAL overcomes the limitations of traditional practical work by offering a more scalable, reliable, and economically viable solution. It facilitates access to experiments without time or location constraints.

Multi-Platform Accessibility for Active Learning

Accessible at any time via a simple web browser, from any connected device, IREAL encourages an active approach to scientific learning, either on its own or as a complement to courses.

A Wide Range of Uses in Science Education

Used to instrument laboratory sessions, prepare practical work on real equipment, carry out demonstrations in lecture halls, or enhance MOOCs, IREAL is adaptable to a wide variety of teaching formats.

Growing Adoption in Higher Education

Already integrated into several engineering schools and universities, IREAL demonstrates its versatility and relevance in hybrid, distance, and face-to-face environments.

Our NaaS Technology Platform

Last Updated On

NaaS (Nuggets as a Service) is an innovative digital ecosystem developed by our IDEA team at ISAE-SUPAERO to optimise the reuse of digital learning content in higher education.

A Centralised Platform for Micro-Learning Content

NaaS (Nuggets as a Service) enables the creation, management, storage, and sharing of micro-content called Nuggets.

This solution meets the need for modularity and speed in the distribution of our educational resources.

A Scalable Online Service, Hosted in France

Our platform is hosted in France and designed as a scalable online service, compatible with a wide variety of platforms, from traditional LMSs to dedicated microlearning solutions.

Native Integration with Moodle and Other Systems

Thanks to a specific plugin, Moodle benefits from advanced integration. Open technical interfaces also facilitate interoperability with other digital learning environments.

A Collaborative Authoring Tool with Integrated Rights Management

NaaS incorporates an authoring tool for collaborative content creation, with a system for managing versions and intellectual property rights.

An Ecosystem Designed for Collaboration

Deployed in a number of inter-institutional projects, NaaS aims to remove the obstacles to the sharing of online educational resources by offering a comprehensive, robust solution geared towards content production.

Our ISAE Group Microlearning platform

Last Updated On

Our ISAE Group Microlearning platform, developed by the IDEA team at ISAE-SUPAERO, is an innovative initiative to support learning in higher aerospace education.

A Platform Dedicated to Micro-Content Courses in Aerospace

Developed as part of the ISAE group, the Microlearning platform provides access to Aerospace Digital Nuggets (ADN): short, targeted modules created by the group’s engineering schools, specifically geared towards aerospace topics.

Effective Content, Accessible at Any Time

Each DNA offers a learning experience lasting less than 30 minutes, optimised for fast, mobile consultation. Users can access it at any time, from any device connected to the Internet.

A Powerful Search Engine and Formative Interactions

The platform includes a powerful search engine to help you find the nuggets you want. The DNAs also include educational interactions to encourage engagement and reinforce knowledge acquisition.

Educational Versatility and Seamless Integration

Designed to adapt to different uses, the platform is used in a variety of contexts: self-training, project support, informal learning, or as a complement to courses. It supports a high degree of flexibility in terms of integration into other courses.

A Solution Designed for an Open Digital Ecosystem

Hosted in France, our platform is part of the NaaS (Nuggets as a Service) ecosystem, which promotes the sharing and re-use of digital teaching content in higher education.

Our MOOCs

Last Updated On

At ISAE-SUPAERO, we're sharing our aerospace training know-how with as many people as possible by designing MOOCs to help spread knowledge.

A Closer Look at Our Aircraft MOOC

More than 10,000 people have taken an introductory course in flight mechanics since the Aircraft MOOC went online.

The main principles involved in understanding how an aircraft flies are taught through 100% distance learning, consisting of:

  • Video sequences covering theoretical and practical concepts
  • Interactive exercises
  • Filmed experiments
  • Instrumented flights
  • Tests for effective skills assessment
  • Responsive tutoring by the teaching team

Our Digital Teaching Tools

Last Updated On

At ISAE-SUPAERO, we are a major player in aeronautics and space training, with advanced use of digital teaching methods and innovative teaching methods. We develop innovative digital platforms and products to contribute effectively to the dissemination of knowledge and to meet the needs of the higher education community.

Our Digital Innovations & Aerospace Education (IDEA) department offers innovative teaching projects such as the development of MOOCs or other online courses such as the ST-EX certificate (Environment and Aviation) or a 100% online, essentially asynchronous Masters course entitled Sustainable Aviation.

We are also implementing a strategy for reusing digital content by developing and distributing reusable micro-content (known as ADN – Aerospace Digital Nuggets) that can be integrated into the course areas of educational platforms at the click of a button.
