NAU Technical Literacy Goals

Northern Arizona University's advisory committee to the provost on academic computing matters has created a list of technical literacy goals for NAU students. The work on this started in 2004 with a survey of faculty, then continued with various discussions headed by a committee of faculty, eLearning and IT staff. The document was completed in Spring 2006 as a recommendation to the Provost. Though no comprehensive  program is in place to either assess nor to develop the student literacy skills, the goals are there. It may be time to revise these and use what I think is a more current and accurate name, and call these fluency goals.
