NCCU SmarterMeasure Learning Readiness
Are you motivated to complete course work? Are you worried about procrastinating? Are you interested in learning more about how you learn? What makes you tick? What are your strengths? What are the challenges you may face when completing assignments?
The SmarterMeasure Learning Readiness Indicator is an assessment meant to be an interesting experience by which you may learn more about yourself. The assessment is accessible in myEOL, located under the Administrative & Academic Services and listed as “SmarterMeasures." It will take you about 30–35 minutes from start to finish, but you may log out and complete it later if necessary. Your score will not prevent you from registering for your classes. It is a tool that will help you assess your strengths and opportunities for growth related to learning in eight areas.
- Life factors: things going on in your life, amount of time you have to study, etc.
- Individual attributes: control over procrastination, time management, willingness to ask for help, and academic attributes
- Learning styles: what is your preferred learning style?
- Learning management system (LMS) competency
- Reading rate and recall
- Technical competency
- Technical knowledge
- Typing speed and accuracy
You will receive a full color report immediately following the completion of all eight areas of the Learning Readiness Indicator. We highly recommend you read through your results, consult with your advisor and try at least one campus resource listed for each section of the report. You may choose to email this report, print it, or download and share with your academic advisor, coach or instructor; you may also save it for future reference.
