    In the era of globalization, the trend towards learning Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) has become increasingly popular worldwide. The increasing demand in learning CFL has raised the profile of the Chinese proficiency test (CPT). This study will analyze in depth the inadequacy of current CPT’s utilizing the common European framework of reference (CEFR) for language learning, teaching, and assessment to develop a set of reliability and validity standards for a computerized adaptive testing (CAT) CPT system. Actual performance of computerized tests will simulate the empirical data via the CAT system process and assess the efficacy of this system.

    The Chinese as second language multidimensional computerized adaptive testing system construction

    With rising demand of Chinese as Second Language (CSL) learning, Chinese Proficiency Test became more and more popular recently. There are several major proficiency tests with paper-pencil (P&P) formats for Chinese learners including Taiwan's test of proficiency-Huayu (TOP-Huayu), the mainland's Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK), and America's Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT). In this study, Common European Framework Reference (CEFR) is applied and CSL Proficiency Index is used as guidelines to develop a multidimensional computerized adaptive testing (MCAT) system for enhancing the CSL proficiency test. This research collected empirical data via the computerized based test (CBT) followed by developing and conducting a simulation study on a MCAT system. The proposed system provides a framework of using item response theory (IRT) as the ability scoring method and applies to the process as a MCAT. In addition, this research will also go through the evaluation of the effectiveness of the process on MCAT system. There were 658 empirical data collected from Grace Christian Collage in Philippine on September 2009. At the end of this research the result indicated that recommend CSL MCAT System applied MAP as the ability estimation method for this MCAT System. The interface of the MCAT system is also present at this research.

    A study on CSL proficiency evaluation—Reading and Listening subject.
    (NAUN, 2011-01-01) Rih-Chang Chao; Bor-Chen Kuo; Hsuan-Po Wang; Ya-Hsun Tsai
    Presently there are many Chinese proficiency tests (CPTs) available today measuring participants’ proficiency in CSL. Most of them, the AP Chinese language and Cultural examination (AP), Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) and Test of Proficiency-Huayu (TOP), had classified their test results in proficiency levels which corresponded to the levels of CEFR (The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, and Assessment). However, some of Reading and Listening subjects in Top had not completely conducted their proficiency level in corresponding to CEFR. Therefore, the items implemented in this study were on the basis of CEFR for CSL CPT reading and listening subject construction. This study applied IRT 3PL model to analyze and interpret 751 reading and 762 listening subjects empirical data collected from Grace Christian Collage in Philippine on September 2009 via the computerized based test (CBT). The contribution of this study was not only on the construction of a CSL Proficiency Test on a basis of CEFR but also in comparison with examinees’ proficiency scales in referring to their background and explored factors that might affected CSL learning effectiveness.
