English (E8) Standards Testing 2007-2008 | |
Beschreibung: | This is the first step towards a permanent large-scale secondary-level system-monitoring programme commissioned by the Austrian Ministry of Education, Science and Culture. The aim of this programme is diagnosis, not selection. Currently, the target group are pupils in grade 8 in grammar schools [Allgemeinbildende Höhere Schulen (AHS)] and secondary schools [Allgemeinbildende Pflichtschulen (APS), i.e. former Hauptschulen]. In May 2006 a sample of approximately 8,000 pupils in 90 pilot schools from all over Austria were tested in the receptive skills of Reading and Listening. In May 2007, about 6,000 pupils were tested in Reading and Listening. Approximately 500 of them were also tested in the productive skill of Writing. In May 2008 the pupils were additionally tested in Speaking. The tests for this project are being developed at LTC by a team of experts with the support of a team of item writers, who are all practicing teachers teaching pupils at grade 8 in AHS and APS. LTC is responsible for item screening, archiving, pilot testing including item analysis, test construction and analysis of the results for the entire population, as well as communicating relevant aspects of the results to different groups of stakeholders (test takers, teachers, school principals, teacher trainers, educational authorities, ministry). After the last pilot phase in 2008, the operation will be performed on a yearly basis. |
