ICT Skills Assessment

ETS now offers an ICT Skills assessment test that is supposed to evaluate a student's ability to perform critical ICT skills that might be different from the everyday technologies they employ. In reviewing the information presented by ETS it looks to be a good test of skills and knowledge related to ICT, but as always the more critical question is what can an institution do with the information it gets from such a diagnostic. Having multiple tracks towards gaining more competency or building more skills is needed once we have the information that students are struggling or strong in a given area. Additionally I would be curious if there is any correlation to performance on this test, and performance on other standardized tests.
