Embedded Literacy and Numeracy Self-Assessment Tool
Project Details
The Self-Assessment Tool for Embedded Literacy and Numeracy (ELN Self-Assessment Tool) aims to help Tertiary Education Organisations and Industry Training Organisations identify their strengths and areas for improvement concerning the embedding of literacy and numeracy, as an integral part of the organisations' existing self-assessment processes.
The Whole-of-Organisation Self-Assessment Tool for Embedded Literacy and Numeracy consists of a User Guide and three sets of questionnaires:
- nine questionnaires for self-assessing ELN across an entire organisation or an organisational unit in a Tertiary Education Organisation (TEO-O)
- nine questionnaires for self-assessing ELN in Industry Training Organisations (ITO-O)
- seven questionnaires for self-assessing ELN across a single programme in a Tertiary Education Organisation (TEO-P).
Downloading the questionnaires
- The Word questionnaires can be downloaded and then completed electronically.
- This may not work on some devices. In those situations, it is recommended to download and print the PDF versions of the questionnaires and fill them out on paper.
- Self-assessment questionnaires are also available at both organisational or organisational unit level and programme level in a Tertiary Education Organisation.
Key Points to Note:
- The ELN Self-Assessment Tool reflects a whole-of-organisation approach to embedded literacy and numeracy, with a particular focus on those parts of an organisation that are deemed to have the most impact on the quality of embedded literacy and numeracy in the organisation.
- The ELN Self-Assessment Tool assists with continuous improvement of literacy and numeracy learner/trainee outcomes as well as embedded literacy and numeracy practices within the organisation.
- It is important to read the User Guide and the information provided by the infographics before putting the ELN Self-Assessment Tool into practice.
The ELN Self-Assessment Tool User Guide outlines the purpose, scope and design of the ELN Self-Assessment Tool, as well as ways in which the Tool can be used appropriately and meaningfully within an organisation.
