From Paper-based Testing to Computer-based Testing        

What knowledge and/or skills will I gain from this course?

At the end of the course, you will:

  • be able to make a plan of action to get started with digital language testing.
  • know what skills are needed within their team to develop and administer good language tests.
  • know what change process will be needed within their organisation to move to digital language testing.
  • be able to assess the feasibility of digital language testing within their organisation.

How is this course delivered?

This two-day course is delivered online via Microsoft Teams. It includes four sessions of 3 hours each.

    Who is the course tutor?

    The course  will be presented by Bert Wylin. Bert has both an academic and a business profile. He has worked at the KU Leuven since 1993, leading the Education Innovation Centre (integrating EdTech in education). In 2001, he founded a KU Leuven university spin-off, now Televic Education, developing and servicing an e-assessment platform. Today, Bert’s focus is on the content side of e-assessment: how does technology best serve the didactic and pedagogical needs of knowledge and skills measurement and assessment?
