Computerized Oral Proficiency Assessment (COPA)

INTRODUCTION

The Yale-China Chinese Language Centre (CLC) of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), as one of the largest institutions of its kind worldwide, offers language-related services in three major areas: (1) proficiency-oriented language teaching in Chinese; (2) publication of teaching materials and dictionaries; and (3) proficiency assessment in both Cantonese and Putonghua.

COPA OPERATIONAL PROGRAM

Proficiency assessment is one of the research areas maintained by CLC. All assessment tools used by CLC, while serving students at the University, are also made available to the public. Learners who want their speaking proficiency assessed could obtain an objective evaluation based on principles in testing and linguistics. The operational COPA program is designed to assess the communicative ability in Putonghua and Cantonese for learners with various cultural and linguistic backgrounds.

LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY CERTIFICATE

A certificate issued by CLC of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, with a description of the proficiency level attained during the assessment, will serve as an indication of the examinee's speaking ability. Such a certificate is mainly used as a supporting document for various academic and practical purposes, such as credits waive at the university level, or proof of language ability for employment.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE

Contact CLC for an application form, then complete and return it with a check for HK$900 (payable to CUHK, of which $100 is application fee). The application fee will not be refunded once the application is processed. Although the COPA is offered as a public service rather than a commercial testing program, CLC must cover costs arising from the operation.

SCORE REPORTING

An official report will be sent to the examinee two months after the testing date. One additional report will be sent free of charge to the institution designated by the examinee on the application form. All subsequent requests within two years from the date of the examination to send the official report directly from CLC should be accompanied by a check of $50 (payable to CUHK).

COPA HISTORY, FORMAT, SCALES AND EXPLANATIONS

The COPA follows similar testing principles used in the Chinese Speaking Test (CST) developed in 1986 by the Center for Applied Linguistics in the United States. The CST is part of an on-going research project funded by the US Department of Education. While taking the COPA, the examinees hear the test directions in their mother tongue (English, Japanese, Korean, Cantonese or Putonghua) from the computer and respond in the language being assessed (Putonghua or Cantonese). Their responses are recorded and stored in the computer, to be evaluated by two specially trained COPA raters. The test lasts approximately 30 minutes, with tasks covering a wide range of topics and speech functions. The COPA has an 8-point scale based on the Proficiency Guidelines developed by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). Each of the 8 points is accompanied by a corresponding description, which characterizes speakers at different levels of proficiency. The rationale in scoring the COPA is to find the level at which the examinee consistently fulfills the speaking functions.
