This seminar is aimed at presenting this new assessment method for PET.
Though PET is now a "classic" among schools in Argentina, computer based assessment for this exam is not.
There are a number of benefits to computer-based testing: - More exam dates. - Faster access to results, with scores available to be seen online just three weeks after the test. - Many students are more comfortable completing a test with a keyboard and mouse rather than paper and pen. - Test takers can edit their answers on screen during the exam. - The use of headphones for the listening elements of tests means that they can adjust the volume to suit their needs. - Online timer and help functions allow candidates to get the best from their exam performance.
