International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS)

The International Computer and Information Literacy Study (ICILS) is a computer-based international assessment of 8th-grade students’ capacities “to use information communications technologies (ICT) productively for a range of different purposes, in ways that go beyond a basic use of ICT” (Fraillon et al. 2018). Following previous cycles (2013 and 2018), ICILS 2023 will continue assessing students’ computer and information literacy (CIL) with an emphasis on the use of computers to investigate, create, participate, and communicate at home, at school, in the workplace, and in the community. An assessment of computational thinking (CT) is optional to participating countries.
