- 3. What is tobe tested?? Pronunciation Grammar Vocabulary Fluency
- 4. Fluency Reading Thispoint of evaluation should be based upon the smoothness of speech, not speed, and take into account the normal use of hesitancy in conversation. Students, who speak efficiently and without awkwardness, should in turn be granted a higher rating.
- 5. Grammar Use Itis unrealistic to expect that any student will come to an exam and speak without any grammar problems; emphasis should therefore be placed on being able to understand the student’s communicative intent even if grammar errors are present in sentence structures. Continual use of the same grammar errors by a students, such as the use of simple past for all past tense term; should reflect in a lower rating. Alternatively those students who are able to recognize that they had made a grammar error and correct it during conversation, should be provided a higher rating.
- 6. Pronunciation As nativeEnglish speakers possess a high degree of tolerance to ambiguity. Accent is not considered variable point of exam evaluation, except where it hinders communicative understanding in the case of radically influencing pronunciation. In situations where continual mispronunciation of terminology, students should be given a lower rating . Alternatively, if students correct their mispronunciation, or recognize their mispronunciation and attempt to correct it throughout the exam, then it is should reflect in a higher rating.
- 7. Vocabulary Depending onthe student choice of topic, certain terms or vocabulary items can be selected from the course materials and incorporated with in students use higher level vocabulary, and select terms taught from the textbook then they should receive a higher rating. If students employ very simple vocabulary terms for a complex topic, such as health, then this should reflect in a lower rating.
