As you begin your time at ºìÐÓÊÓƵ, we want to ensure you have all the tools and resources you need to succeed. To help us better support your educational experience, we will be conducting post-registration testing in these key areas: literacy, numeracy, and digital literacy.
Why Post-Registration Testing?
These assessments are designed to provide us with a clear understanding of your current skills in these fundamental areas. The results will help us tailor our support services and academic programs to better meet your needs, ensuring you have a strong foundation to build upon throughout your time here.
What to Expect
- Literacy Test: This assessment will evaluate your reading comprehension, writing skills, and critical thinking abilities. Strong literacy skills are essential for success across all disciplines, and this test will help identify any areas where additional support may be beneficial.
- Numeracy Test: This test will measure your ability to understand and work with numbers. Numeracy skills are crucial not only for courses in mathematics and science but also for everyday problem-solving and decision-making.
- Digital Literacy Test: In today’s digital age, being proficient with technology is more important than ever. This test will assess your ability to use digital tools, navigate the internet, and understand basic computer functions, ensuring you are prepared for the digital demands of both your studies and future career.
