Are you ready for online learning at NOVA Online?

SmarterMeasure logoAre you thinking about signing up for an online course this summer? Not sure if online learning is right for you? Find out by completing the SmarterMeasure assessment.  It will take you about 30 minutes from start to finish but you may log out and complete it later if necessary.  After you login, you will receive an email from SmarterMeasure with a PIN number that will allow you to log back in later or view your results again.

SmarterMeasure is meant to be an interesting experience by which you may learn more about yourself, online learning, and how to succeed!  Your SmarterMeasure score will not prevent you from registering for online classes. Take your time to rate yourself honestly. It is a tool that will help you assess your strengths and opportunities for growth related to online learning in 6 areas.

1. Life Factors

2. Individual Attributes

3. Learning Styles

4. Technical Competency, Skills, and Knowledge

5. Reading Rate and Recall

6. Typing Speed and Accuracy

You will receive a report immediately following the completion of all areas of SmarterMeasure. You may email this report, print it, or download and save for future reference. It also provides some remedial tools related to each area.

Over the next six weeks we will cover the six areas covered in your SmarterMeasure report. You can also plan to join us for a SmarterMeasure webinar to learn more about the assessment. More information about the webinar can be found here.
