高校英语大规模网络化口语测试的可行性与技术设计

The Practicality and Technical Design of Net-based Large-scale Oral Testing for College English

语言测试对于语言能力的提高、对于语言教学具有较强的反拨作用。英语口语测试组织复杂,而且在测试环境、测试设备、测试员方面要求较高,因而成为语言测试中的难点,导致大规模口语测试难以开展。借助于计算机网络,在高校开展大规模口语测试具有理论可行,技术设计可以达到预设目的。

Language testing plays an important role of washback in developing language competence and language teaching. However, oral competence testing is difficult to practice because of its complexity of organizing and high demands for the testing environment, testing equipment and its need for good testers. This paper tries to argue the theoretical practicability and technical design of net-based large-scale oral testing for college English.
