Description
type:論文(Article)
First, this paper explores the recent use of English proficiency tests as external tests at higher educational institutions. External tests such as TOEIC, TOEFL, and Step Test (Eiken) are used because they enable us to measure English communication ability and to compare the results at several stages of teaching and learning. Higher institutions make use of these test scores to motivate students and innovate EFL teaching and learning. Second, the paper reviews research at Kumamoto University which examined an English program which incorporated the TOEIC-IP score into the final grade of one required English class. Third, the results of the author's classroom research are reported: sutudents planned their learning during the samester using CASEC (a computer-adaptive test) scores. Students' comments on the effects of the external test on their learning are presented. Finally, washback effects of external tests on EFL teaching and learning at higher insitutions are discussed.
