About 60 schools are trying to write national tests digitally instead of on paper. This is how students at Tingberg School in Kungsbacka think it works – see when Lilla currently visits the class.
– It is partly about adaptation for the students. It is possible to change the size of text and background color, for example. There will also be less work for teachers.

Digitization was supposed to be introduced already last year, but has been delayed. The Swedish National Agency for Education is now conducting tests at randomly selected schools around Sweden.

The students at Tingbergsskolan in Kungsbacka experience some technical confusion during the test.

Is a digital test best written on paper or on a computer? In the clip, you can hear the students’ motivation.
