TESTAGEM DE PROFICIÊNCIA EM LEITURA EM INGLÊS: A VISÃO DOS EXAMINANDOS IMPORTA?

Résumé

This paper aims at discussing the particular situation of ESP proficiency testing at Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM). The main argument presented is that the interpretation of final scores in ESP testing should take into account the inter-relationship between the test itself, the self-evaluation of the testees about their reading ability in ESP, and their performance on the test, in order to approach the testing situation from a wider perspective.
