TOEFL NextGen
TOEFL NextGen: "The next generation TOEFL test:
Focus on communication
Coming in September 2005! A new TOEFL test that assesses all four basic language skills: Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.
To succeed in an academic environment in which English is the language of instruction, international students need to not only understand English, but also to communicate effectively.
ETS has developed a new TOEFL test that will help individuals demonstrate the English skills needed for academic success. This next generation TOEFL test will also help institutions make better decisions about prospective students' academic readiness for academic coursework.
Because the next generation TOEFL test includes a Speaking section, institutions and agencies will no longer need to include the TSE test as a separate requirement. Until September 2005, test takers will take the current TOEFL and TSE tests.
For updates on the new test, visit this site often and attend one of our upcoming conference presentations. "
