Opis

This book tries to solve a practical problem, that is, the general lack of the spoken English achievement test (SEAT) in the college English teaching for non-English majors in mainland China. To achieve this purpose, it first reviews theories and techniques relevant to speaking and language testing, then conducts empirical research into four SEAT formats, and finally puts forward a presentation and discussion (P&D) SEAT format. It can make the "impractical" SEAT practical, thus promoting testing, and in turn, teaching and learning of spoken English for non-English majors in Chinese universities in order to meet the social and learners' individual needs for the English speaking skill.
