Theories of information and the profound implications of the shift from text to hypertext are too sticky to assess on a form like this. Here, we'll assess only easily quantifiable skills.

Please describe your skills by selecting the appropriate description for each of the software categories and activities below.

The categories overlap. Note the learn more links. Clicking them will show you another Ricci Street page where you can learn more.
