• There will be one examiner and one student in each exam room.
• The student ID card will be checked (no proof of ID means the test cannot be taken).
• The PPT file will be projected on the screen before entry to the exam room.
• Give a 4 - 5-minute presentation in Part 1.
• Answer follow-up interview questions for up to 2 minutes in Part 2.
Marking and feedback:
• The presentation and the interview answers will be assessed based on the marking descriptors at the end of this task sheet.
• General task feedback will be provided to all students after the marks are released via LMO.
Suggestions and other information:
• Use a clear structure (introduction, body, conclusion) and signposting language.
• Use eye contact and body language.
• Use prosodic features (e.g. intonation, stress) and appropriate pacing.
• Use clear and correct pronunciation.
• Use appropriate visuals (e.g. PPT) and language skills when describing charts/ graphs.
• After the PPT submission deadline, the PPT cannot be deleted, changed, or re-uploaded. No late submissions are allowed. You will need to do the presentation without a PPT if you miss the
deadline, and it will affect your grade.
• The examiner will download your PPT (remember to include the presentation topic, your full name, and student ID number on the first slide) from the Learning Mall dropbox and have it displayed on the screen before you enter the room.
• During the presentation, you will have access to the computer, projector, screen, mouse, PPT clicker, whiteboard, and board markers.
• If you speak for less than 4 minutes in Part 1, the examiner may say “Have you finished?”.
• If you do not understand a question or a word in Part 2, you can ask the examiner to repeat the question and/or ask for clarification.
• If you give a limited response in Part 2, the examiner may encourage you to speak more with follow- up questions, such as “Why?”, “Why not?”, “How?”, or “Can you say more about that?” .
