BLE 405 - Foreign Language Proficiency

0 credits
This course is a requisite for all bilingual concentration and/or endorsement candidates as a measure of foreign language proficiency level. All candidates must complete the ACTFL writing proficiency test and the ACTFL oral proficiency interview in the approved target language area and receive a minimum rating of “Advanced Mid” for speaking and “Advanced Mid” for writing as the passing level. The oral proficiency interview is an integrative test that addresses a number of abilities simultaneously and looks at them from a global perspective rather than from the point of view of the presence or absence of any given linguistic feature. The ACTFL writing proficiency test is a standardized procedure for the global assessment of functional writing ability. The candidate will read prompts in English and compose written responses in the target language, without the aid of dictionaries or grammar references.
