The NAEP technology and engineering literacy (TEL) assessment is a new, computer-based assessment that will help policymakers, educators, and the public determine whether the nation’s students have the necessary knowledge and skills in technology and engineering areas. The
TEL assessment opens the door to understanding what students know about technology and engineering, in the same way that NAEP already assesses their knowledge and capabilities in reading, mathematics, science, and other subjects.
