    Staff Guide for delivery of the Literacy and Numeracy Adult Assessment Tool (LNAAT)

       

    The Assessment Tool is a part of a bigger process shown below:




    Knowing your learner includes understanding their current literacy and numeracy skill levels.
    To do this we use the Literacy and Numeracy Adult Assessment Tool (LNAAT).

EXIT Assessment and Reports

  • EXIT Assessment and Reports

    • Motivating learners to do their end-of-course assessments (progress assessments)

      TEC expects us to use the Assessment Tool for evaluation purposes at the end of a programme. The progress assessments can tell us if we’ve made a difference to our learners’ literacy and numeracy through our teaching. We can use this information in self-evaluation and programme evaluation to show we are meeting learner needs and to consider changes to our programmes and teaching where necessary.

      However, sometimes there has been resistance from learners doing the tool at the end of a programme and tutors have found it difficult to schedule the final assessments. This resistance comes from a variety of factors but the main issue seem to be that they don’t see the point in sitting it again at a time when they are doing lots of other assessments at the end of their course.  If we ensure they understand that re-doing the tool can show their improvement, they're more likely to want to do the LNAAT. Watch the video below for some tips to engage learners.

      In addition, TEC have indicated that they are going to use the tool results as an indicator that there have been improvements in literacy and numeracy and this will inevitably be linked to funding.
