Abstract

In the original language

This chapter draws attention to different modes of language exam administration in the context of tertiary education. Student perceptions of computer-based written language exams in supervised and unsupervised settings and also oral language exams taken face-to-face and distantly form the focus of this research study. Overall, it describes language testing procedures which currently take place at a Department of English and American studies in the Czech Republic and details the necessary changes that needed to be implemented in order for the language exams to be administered distantly due to COVID 19. It depicts the benefits and drawbacks of testing the students in different modes as viewed by students. The final part looks into the future and outlines pedagogical implications based on the research outcomes.
