About READI - Readiness for Education At a Distance Indicator
Are you ready to take a distance-learning course?
READI is a web-based tool which assesses a learner's likelihood for succeeding in an online learning program. READI indicates the degree to which an individual student possesses attributes, skills and knowledge that contribute to success in online learning, including:
Self-motivation
Time-management skills
Self-discipline
Reading comprehension
Persistence
Availability of time
Ability to use a laptop, printer, software, and the Internet.
Typing speed and accuracy
READI does not rely on simple self-assessment questions with obvious "right" and "wrong" answers. Rather, READI uses a sequence of activities to measure the degree to which students possess the traits needed for success in studying at a distance.
READI provides an immediate score and diagnostic interpretation of results to the student and to their prospective school.
