Sažetak
Building on a recent paper on Maritime English Testing – Current State of Affairs (Velikova 2010) this workshop undertakes to identify current developments and trends in testing Maritime English at MET institutions offering BSc and HND (Associate in Science) courses. This includes the types of test (proficiency tests, achievement tests, diagnostic tests, placement tests) ; purpose of testing (formative vs. summative, communicative language tests) ; media of testing (paper and pencil vs. computer-based tests, computer-adaptive tests), etc. (Hughes, 2003). In group work discussion using a specially designed questionnaire the participants are expected to provide information and exchange their own experience and views concerning the types of test, role of testing in overall assessment, frequency, and methods of testing (test tasks, knowledge and skills tested, marking schemes, technical issues, student feedback, etc.) as applied in their respective institution and courses. The feedback from group and plenary discussion is to provide the input for creating a web-based questionnaire and a forum on testing Maritime English, the results of which will be presented at the next IMEC event.
