Title | Practice Rating Spanish Proficiency Levels |
Body | On the Spanish Corpus & Proficiency Level Training (SPT) website you will find video recordings of Spanish learners of different levels answering several questions, a written transcript of what they say, and exercises that will guide you interactively to notice features about their talk, as well as answers to those exercises. The purpose of the site is to: Learn to evaluate Spanish proficiency levels. Access a Spanish corpus of beginner to advanced learners of Spanish. Website features include: High quality video files of learners of different levels of proficiency in dialogues answering a given set of questions Interactive exercises to engage viewers in the analysis of the data A breakdown of questions by function with answers that allow the viewers to check their answers to learn more about each learner's discourse Review exercises that allow viewers to summarize their findings for individual questions, leading them to a generalized evaluation of the learners' level of proficiency based on several responses Learner discourse requiring more advanced skills (e.g., stating and supporting an opinion, past-time narration, hypothesizing) A suppressible transcript that reflects what each learner says in each video clip About the proficiency ratings: The proficiency ratings on this website have been verified by a certified ACTFL (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages) rater. The website is not intended to train users to be raters according to the ACTFL proficiency guidelines. Also, our proficiency ratings differ from those used by ACTFL (we use 5 levels when ACTFL uses 10). The site is aimed at familiarizing the user with an approximation of proficiency levels.
