Mustafa's+Actual+Test



Okay. Shaping up.


 * 1) Confused about your test statement - there you mention only simple past and present--in the test you are testing continuous, prefect and future aspects. Your test title also mentions just simple present and past forms.
 * 2) Even though it is obvious, I'd probably put in an example question/answer for parts 1 and 2. They might try writing in the gaps, or crossing out the wrong answers, etc.
 * 3) You should indicate the total number of points per par, as well as the points per question.
 * 4) Part 3 - will save your eyes to add lines, perhaps in a box so you have some space to write comments. How will you assess this? Again, second question is about future plans--doesn't match your test specifications. (spelling of 'paragraf') You might have to allow quite a bit of time to write two paragraphs, without any prompts. How much time do you plan to allow for this? How does this balance with the actual points for each part?
 * 5) Part 1 - why include the infinitive form as a prompt at the end of the question? The M/C distractors give all the necessary forms.
 * 6) Part 1 is more difficult than Part 2 - consider changing the order. Generally we try to start out with the easier questions.
 * 7) Answer key? Have you had someone try this test?
 * 8) Timing?
 * 9) Layout...to save trees, you could probably dispense with the cover page, although it does look nice. All you need is their name at the top.
 * 10) If you are clever, you can probably use COLUMNS to put PARTs 1 and 2 on one page, and then on the other side leave room for writing. Practicality (cheaper to copy, lighter to carry, no chance of missing pages) and environmentally friendly.
 * 11) Part 1, Q2 - every day - two words (it's not an adverb in this context). Ditto Part 2, Q4.
 * 12) Part 1, Q8. Can't ever think of a context in which this sentence would ever be used.
 * 13) Part 2, Q6 - Strange context. In fact, both tenses could be correct.
 * 14) Part 2 - do you expect them to use contractions? You should make this clear in the instructions.
 * 15) Authenticity in parts 1 and 2 is quite low. Part 3 seems rather artificial...perhaps the task could be adapted to make sense to a Guzelyurt teenager?
