100 Exam Booster Activities - Paperback

by Samad Samadov (Author)

Exams, while commonly thought of as a means of testing students' comprehension of material, can serve multiple purposes. Knowing why we are testing students and what we want to test can help make the exam experience more useful for both students and teachers.
Examined results can assist us in identifying concepts and methods that students are struggling with - questions that were missed - as well as concepts and methods that were well understood - questions that were generally successfully answered.
Gaps in knowledge may lead to a lack of understanding, which can prevent students from getting higher grades.

All the tasks in this book are based on the most common mistakes as well as language slips that many exam takers make.
There are 2 parts in this book. Estimating the likely number and strengths of encounters test-takers have had with individual words and grammar patterns is more or less feasible depending on the context and purpose of the test. Therefore, Part 1 is based on lexis and grammar oriented activities that may revise and consolidate students' knowledge. Part 2 of this book consists of the activities that can assist students' practical knowledge of the four language skills.
The current book is intended to be a supplementary guide to help candidates focus on all the problematic points that every exam takers might face. All the tasks are extremely helpful for both teachers and candidates working partly or entirely on their own.
