Listening assessment tasks developed by CEM Centre of Durham University:

The tasks were developed by The Centre for Evaluation and Monitoring at Durham University, pretested on local students and moderated by local professionals under an EDB-commissioned research project.

The tasks aim to facilitate teachers to set slightly higher expectation of student performance in order to address various needs and to explore a wider range of themes, authentic texts and question types.
