Case demonstration (15’) • Test standards (GESE) • Standard-based test preparation activities • Test standards (SEAS) • Standard-based test preparation activities
Procedure of Designing • 1 Analyse the test standards and make a detailed list of the abilities the standards require. • 2 Make a theoretically correct and practically feasible learning sequence towards the abilities. • 3 Design appropriate activities for test preparation.
Practice (10’) • 1 Please design some test preparation activities for GESE on the topic ‘food’ based on the standards. • 2 Please design some test preparation activities for SEAS writing based on the standards. • You can do the design individually or in groups of 5.
