The nonprofit Educational Testing Service’s (ETS) new Information and Communications Technology (ICT) literacy exam “measures students’ abilities to research, organize, and communicate information using technology….Feedback from librarians and faculty members has shown that while most college-age students can use technology, they don’t necessarily know what to do with the content the technology provides….To achieve information and communication technology literacy, a person must be able to research a topic well, identify credible data, and then prepare a cohesive, compelling argument based on the findings.” [See page 16, Fall 2006, Innovations, for more details.]
