Implementing CEFR in tertiary context: compromises and balance
Original language description
Developing standardized language tests at university language centres is a highly demanding process full of compromises aimed at seeking balance within multi-faceted contexts of tertiary level language teaching. The proper ratio of proficiency and achievement, reasonable proportion between language for specific and language for academic purposes reflecting curricula and syllabi, appropriate weighting of language skills and subskills dominated by CEFR level descriptors represent just the tip of the iceberg. The first part of the poster will present primary achievements and obstacles within a language test standardization process of a central European university language centre with regard to implementing CEFR. It will also contextualize the ambitious project encompassing nine faculties and four foreign languages and provide basic background information necessary for a closer look at the situation in one of the faculties.
