Speaking
There are eleven tests in speaking. The paired format (two students and a teacher) of the speaking tests aims to offer students the opportunity to demonstrate, in a controlled but friendly atmosphere, their ability to use their spoken language skills effectively. The collaborative tasks make it possible for the teacher to elicit an adequate sample of their students' best language and to provide an accurate and fair assessment of it. Therefore, students should be able to provide full but natural answers to the questions and to speak clearly and audibly at all times. They should not be afraid to ask for clarification if they have not understood what has been said.
The approximate time of each test is 10-15 minutes as some tests require some student preparation (3-4 minutes) e.g. Test 5, Test C, Test 9, Final Test.
The format allows the teacher to assess listening to the students' conversations and information exchanges. Alternatively, the teacher could act as interlocutor and manage the interaction either by asking questions or providing cues for the students. It is the teacher's role to ensure that both students are given an equal opportunity to speak.
The role of the students is to maintain the interaction as much as possible and take equal turns in the information exchange so as to provide the teacher/examiner with an adequate amount of language to assess.
The tasks are varied and they always refer to the leading theme of each Module in the Students' Book.
They focus on:
- exchanging personal information;
- exchanging factual information;
- expressing opinions;
- planning and decision making;
- reaching a consensus;
- negotiating;
- describing pictures;
- giving a topic presentation.
