LanguageMAPTM is a web-based multimedia system for assessing English proficiency, particularly for speakers of English as a second language.
Developed by researchers at the University of Queensland, the system is based on research that has shown that English language testing is more successful when assessment is based on knowledge of English, as well as demonstrated ability to use the language in real time.
It has a range of applications by individuals, language schools, and other teaching or work environments where demonstrated English language competency is essential.
Current clients have used the program for quick assessment of English skills prior to and at the completion of language teaching programs, as an assessment tool for overall English competency.
The product is under active development by UniQuest Pty Ltd, the commercialisation arm of the University of Queensland. It is available for immediate commercial applications, or collaborative opportunities with partners to further develop its potential.
