My Assessment Results

I scored 85 out of 100 possible points on the Table of Essential Digital Literacy Elements self-assessment on the Atomic_Learning website.

This showed me that though I am comfortable with most computer applications that were included in the assessment, I am not comfortable enough to teach some of them to others. And, I'm certainly not ready to publish anything - maybe it's just a lack of confidence - who knows?

I also don't know if I CAN'T show others how to do some of the things listed or if I just don't have time to show them. I hate to admit it, but a lot of times, my attitude is just that it's easier to do it myself.

You will notice that there is no magical scale to go along with this score - numbers don't correspond to a matching technology skill level. This is just a number that you can record to show you where you are, what areas you need to improve in, and a little while down the road, you can take it again and be amazed by your growth.

The most important factor here, as I see it, is that you are willing to do this...to learn more about yourself and your technology skills, and to dedicate time and effort to improve what you know and to increase your comfort level.

Thanks for participating!
