Q143

You prepare a test item that expects the learners to use tense forms, connectors, prepositions, and adjectives accurately. The approach that you have used in this test item is :

  1. (1) Direct grammar testing
  2. (2) Indirect grammar testing
  3. (3) Mixed grammar task
  4. (4) Integrated grammar testingCorrect answer

Solution.

CBSE answer: (4)

Answer: (4) Integrated grammar testing

  1. The item asks learners to use several grammar points together: tenses, connectors, prepositions and adjectives.
  2. These are tested while using language in a task such as writing, not as separate rules.
  3. Testing many elements together within real language use is integrated (integrative) testing.

Trap: (1) direct testing checks one grammar point at a time, e.g. fill in the blank with the correct tense.
