“The two-day workshop Relating language curricula, tests and examinations to the Common European Framework of Reference (RELANG) was extremely useful and very dynamic for all the participants. It provided important information on the CEFR, in particular the descriptors for different language skills during the developing tasks for language testing of receptive and productive skills. The participants exchanged their experiences and thoughts on testing, exam tasks and evaluation.
In addition to the criteria important for the development of tests, the evaluation criteria were also elaborated and the need for continuous improvement in the field of testing was emphasized.”
