Oral Testing and Classroom Oral Performance

Professor O'Sullivan will discuss oral testing from a theoretical point of view, then describe a project that resulted in an innovative peer-based oral testing system.

He has provided me with two papers of relevance to his talk. "Using observation checklists to validate speaking-test tasks" discusses the construct of speaking and speaking assessment, and recounts an attempt to devise a checklist that would be used in real time to assess the speech functions produced during an oral assessment task.
