The ICT Literacy Assessment uses real-time, scenario-based tasks — NOT multiple-choice questions — to assess seven ICT skills required of today’s higher education students. The test measures not only knowledge of technology but the ability to use critical-thinking skills to solve problems within a technological environment. The 75-minute test contains two different types of tasks: 14 short tasks, each of which addresses a single ICT skill, and one long task, which addresses multiple skills. Short tasks are designed to take no more than four minutes each to complete. The long task should take no more than 15 minutes to complete. |
