Abstract |
---|
3. The implementation of standardized language exams within the context of tertiary education is a complex process that implies a wide range of challenges and compromises. The consequences of the standardization process potentially affect a large number of stake-holders. The paper applying mixed method research methodology examines the impact of an ambitous project aimed at standardizing high-stakes language exams developed, administered and evaluated at a central European university language centre. It contextualizes the process encompassing nine faculties and four foreign languages and provides basic background information necessary for a closer look at the washback effect, i.e. the way the standardization process has been affecting teachers and teaching. |
