You may have heard of IQ and EQ. At Agmo Junior we also talk about TQ. Here is what it means and why we think it matters for your child.
What TQ stands for
TQ stands for Technology Quotient. It describes how well a child understands and uses technology, and how they think when they work with it. It covers four areas:
- Digital Literacy: navigating and communicating digitally.
- Technology Proficiency: using tools to get things done.
- Computational Thinking: breaking problems down and designing solutions.
- Digital Mindset: staying curious and adapting to change.
Certificates versus growth
A certificate shows that a task was completed. TQ shows how a child's thinking is growing. Two children can finish the same course and receive the same certificate, yet one may have become much more confident at solving problems on their own. Measuring TQ helps us see that difference.
What parents get
Parents receive specific feedback across all four areas, rather than a single score. This makes it easier to see where your child is strong and where they could use more support.
Why it matters beyond coding
The thinking skills behind TQ carry over to school, sports and everyday decisions. A child who can break a problem into smaller steps, try a solution and adjust it will use that habit far beyond the computer.
For us, measuring growth is about teaching better, not grading faster. It helps our teachers decide what each child needs next.
