Northstar Standards

Northstar Standards

Northstar Digital Literacy, a program of Literacy Minnesota, provides standards-based resources to help learners master the digital skills needed to work, learn, and participate fully in daily life. Online, self-guided assessments measure basic skills in each of 17 areas, allowing individuals to identify current skills and access opportunities for learning new ones. Each  assessment area has corresponding online and classroom curricula. 

The content standards in the Essential Computer Skills area (listed below) are required MNABE instructional standards. These should be integrated into overall instruction. MNABE instructors can assess their own digital skills (confidentially) here.
