SLS 730: Web-based
testing
Fall 2001
Links to online resources
The following
sites are listed because they might be of interest to anyone working on web-based
language testing. This is an eclectic list, not always dealing with online
issues per se, and in some cases not necessarily specifically related to language
or testing. However, they are here as models that might be adapted for web-based
language testing. There are many other testing sites on line, and if you find
something that I might want to add, let me know at: tdh@hawaii.edu.
Note: The fact that these sources and tests are listed does not indicate an endorsement of any of them. They are here to serve as some examples of what exists now in time. Most of the tests do not present any information about their reliability, validity, or uses. So, you are not encouraged to just take these and inflict them on your students.
