EDED20519 - Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education Students (Postgraduate)
General Information
Unit Synopsis
The Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership (AITSL) requires that all initial teacher education students possess personal literacy and numeracy competencies in the top 30 percent of the population. The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) administers both the literacy and numeracy tests to assess whether initial teacher education students meet the requirements outlined by AITSL. This zero credit point unit will enable the tracking of your registration and completion of the tests for both literacy and numeracy. Full-time Master of Teaching students are required to attempt the literacy and numeracy tests in their first term of study. Part-time Master of Teaching students are required to attempt the literacy and numeracy tests in their first year of study. For further details of the test, visit the ACER website at: https://teacheredtest.acer.edu.au
