Any high school ESL programs out there that would like to participate in pilot testing the new AAPPL English assessment? I am looking for some fairly low-level speakers (Novice and low-level Intermediate) to take the assessment after the first of the year. The assessment will measure abilities in Interpretive (Listening and Reading), Presentational (Writing), and Interpersonal (Listening and Speaking) and the 4 components can be broken up into segments, meaning that it can be taken over a few days. We are looking for about 15-20 students at these lower levels. The results will be sent to the school but they will not be official ACTFL results as this is a pilot. If you are interested, let me know. Please write to me at AAPPLQA@xxxxxxxxx Thanks, Arnold
