National Examinations in World Languages (NEWL) ~ Korean

The National Examinations in World Languages (NEWL) were developed by the American Councils for International Education. The NEWL assesses functional proficiency in the interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational modes of communication. The four sections of NEWL are reading comprehension, listening comprehension, integrated writing, and integrated speaking. Reading Comprehension consists of a series of short, culturally, and linguistically authentic texts followed by one to three multiple-choice questions in English. Listening Comprehension consists of similar material to the reading section but requires examinees to listen to brief audio scenarios: dialogs, newscasts, radio shows, and other audio media. Integrated Writing consists of audio and written prompts that elicit the ability to respond in writing. For example, the writing tasks may require examinees to type notes to friends, write letters or emails, or present opinions on topics, all in the target language. Integrated Speaking consists of audio and written prompts that require a spoken response. Examinees use their headsets with microphones to record their spoken responses via a recorder embedded in the testing browser window.
