Online Component In order to increase English exposure outside of class we have incorporated and online component in our formative assessment. We grade our students’ online work once or twice in a course depending on the course. The tasks are predetermined and students are expected to complete within the set timeframe (see the EPS assessment calendar).

End of level Presentation At the end of each course, learners are provided with the opportunity to display their spoken skills through presentation work. The presentation process has three stages; Outlining, Drafting and Presentation. Learners are provided with guidelines to follow for which they do research in their own time. Learners prepare their outlines in class (see the EPS assessment calendar). Feedback is provided on the outlines and learners are given approximately 2 weeks to prepare their draft presentations: notecards, PowerPoint, pictures, etc. Teachers provide support and guidance throughout the process.
