National Assessment Program – Yr 6 ICT Literacy

What is the National Assessment Program–ICT Literacy assessment?

The National Assessment Program is an ongoing program of assessments designed to measure progress towards the goals outlined in the Mparntwe Declaration, 2019.
The NAP–ICT Literacy assessment measures and reports on the ability of students to use ICT appropriately and safely to access, manage and evaluate information; develop new understandings; apply computational, design and systems thinking to create solutions; communicate and collaborate with others; and engage productively with emerging and future technologies.

How will the assessment be conducted?
The NAP-ICTL main study assessment is a computer-based test that will be delivered using an online delivery platform. Students will, therefore, undertake the test using school computers, which are connected to the internet.
