The NCEA Student App has been officially launched.It complements the NCEA Guide App launched, last year, by NZQA to assist parents and employers to understand how NCEA works.
The free NCEA Student App has been developed to help students track their NCEA credit progress and set goals for their NCEA achievement. Although there are other apps available to students, the NCEA Student App provides an officially maintained database of standards and a goal-setting function. We encourage students to look at all the apps available and to use the one that suits them best.
The NCEA Student App will help students, parents, schools and whānau track learning progress and encourage excellence. All content is available in English and Te Reo Māori.
The NCEA Student App functionality makes it possible for students to:
- Create a record of the subjects and standards that they are studying
- Select and set their NCEA credit goals and targets
- See how they are tracking towards NCEA Levels one, two and three, including Literacy, Numeracy and University Entrance (UE)
- Set reminders for each standard – such as when assignments are due
- Capture results as they are achieved and cross check with the school or NZQA
- Personalise with information such as their NSN number or details about a course or standard (such as the teacher’s name or timetabled classroom)
- Customise with different colour coding options and the ability to add photos
- Use in English and Te Reo Māori.
The App has a standalone database with a powerful search engine which allows students to easily find NCEA courses and standards that they are doing, or would like to do, and to set and track achievement goals.
The NCEA Student App is free to download from the Apple App store and the Google Play Store.
More information for students, teachers, parents and whānau is available on the NZQA website at www.nzqa.govt.nz/student-app and we are regularly promoting the App on our Facebook and Twitter pages.
NZQA asks for your help in making students aware of this App to support them in achieving their NCEA goals.
