Self-Assessment:
What You Already Know
Your first task is to complete a self-assessment of your current digital skill levels. The self-assessment is a required task. The purpose of this self-assessment is to help you understand your level of fluency with the nine digital skill areas covered in this micro-credential. Be sure to keep your self-assessment on hand as you progress through this micro-credential.
You will use your self-assessment results to guide your learning throughout Modules 2 to 5. At the end of the micro-credential, you will complete this self-assessment again to reflect on your learning and set goals for the future.
Instructions
For each digital skill listed, please rate your current skill level by placing an ‘x’ in the box where you believe you are with regard to your digital skills. There is the option to include additional notes as well. The link to the self-assessment can be found below.
