We have a mandate from our administration to make all placement tests (especially for incoming freshlings) completely online by next summer, so we are experimenting with using the BYU test in conjunction with an online writing tool deployed or distributed via Moodle. Anyone else using Moodle for such tasks? --Barbara -- Barbara Sawhill Director, Cooper International Learning Center Lecturer, Hispanic Studies Department Oberlin College Oberlin, OH 44074 Voice: 440-775-8595 Fax: 440-775-6888 http://www.oberlin.edu/ilc President-elect, IALLT http://www.iallt.org http://www.languagelabunleashed.com Skype: barbarasawhill LLTI-Editor wrote: >--- Forwarded Message from [log in to unmask] --- > > > >>From: [log in to unmask] >>To: [log in to unmask] >>Subject: online placement exams >>Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2006 00:12:25 +0000 >> >> > >I am interested in getting feedback from those who have created online placement >exams.
