As students, some of you have taken standardized tests in your lifetime, like the SAT, or GRE, GMAT, etc. Or you might have taken entrance exams into university. Now, there's planning to be a new test for students that tests their web skills, and how adept they are in finding stuff on the web. It's called the Information and Communication Technology Literacy Assessment. The 'Net is becoming so pervasive and so fundamental that lots of students lack the fundamental requirements of how to use the Web successfully for research. And apparently, it's not just all Google , Google, Google, and copy and paste. There's some additional higher level skill involved as well.
What do people think? Do you think there should be some standardized kind of test for using the web? Seeing that it is fundamental to doing research and getting information, just like how to use the library to find information for assignments and projects you are working on, it's become necessary.
