Task 15

Portfolio is a creative way to test how students have learned a foreign language. It can be used to document some kinds of language abilities which standardized instruments fail to measure. And teachers also can place into student's portfolio audiotapes and videotapes which can show the learner's use of the language (spontaneous oral production). But it's not all. A student may place a work that, he/she believes, shows unusual learning and/or ability, what makes the student get more responsable about his/her production. During the course of a semester or school year, students do many diferent kinds of activities. If a student feels particularly proud of a composition he/she has written in target language, he/she can place it into his/her portfolio. It's interesting because the contents of student's portfolios can provide information to teachers which can help them make decisions about curriculum and the parents can pay attention on their children growth.
