A video of the presentation, "Implementing Better Multiple Choice for EFL Learning and Testing." by Charles Jannuzi, University of Fukui, Japan This presentation describes and explains procedures and techniques by which teachers can create their own collections of multiple-choice (objective-response) items for language practice and testing for courses. The focus is specifically how to devise and deploy multiple choice questions (MCQ) to enable language practice and testing that are more organic to assigned courses and their designated syllabuses, materials, and classroom content. It is hoped that these explanations and examples will serve, for example, teachers who have to give grades based on objective evaluation to large numbers of students and who do not have time for alternative means (e.g., oral interviews). A couple of notes of correction and clarification: 1. In the presentation I say basically the words 'clothes' and 'close' have the same pronunciation. Their canonical dictionary pronunciation says that they are different, but my point was in a lot of speech, the cluster of the coda of 'clothes' elides or simplifies to make the word a homophone of 'close'. 2. In the presentation I discuss using word frequency analysis software to analyze your materials. Another good tool is software to give you a reading level / grade level / difficulty level. Texts with lower reading levels / less difficulty levels tend to use the most frequent words of English.

This is a sharing on our precious project with our students. The Lumos Express project is inspired by our passion which are writing, sketching and photography. We incorporated the @Tayasui.com application for the project. Hope you darls enjoy our presentation!
