Education 2.0 & 3.0

NZQA’s findings from the 2020 NCEA Online evaluation show that the programme is well supported by schools and students, who continue to strongly enjoy the digital exam experience.

Students were asked to participate in an online survey after each digital exam to measure their self-reported satisfaction and experience. This feedback has been valuable and is already informing the next steps NZQA is taking with digital assessment, in collaboration with schools and the wider education sector.

Psychometric and statistical analysis of results, which was conducted Levels 1, 2 and 3 in English,  Level 1 in History and Level 2 in Business Studies, showed no evidence of disadvantage for those students sitting a digital examination, compared to the paper equivalent.
