FLES Testing.
Kern, Edith
The French Review, v33 n1 p45-52 Oct 1959
FLES comprehension tests, administered by television to a large group of elementary school students in a televised French course in Pennsylvania, are outlines in terms of testing methods and skills measured. Skills tested include (1) comprehension of phrases and words in context, simple stories, numbers, dates, times of day, (2) identification and differentiation by sound, and (3) grammatical identification of gender. Examples illustrate the testing methods. Test results are provided and some remarks on the relation of student intelligence and classroom teacher language teaching to class achievement under televised teaching are offered. (AF)
