Links to Language Assessment Resources

Here are some links to additional Internet resources for those interested in second language assessment:

• Dr. Glenn Fulcher of the English Language Institute at Surrey University in the UK maintains a list of resources in language testing. This website is an extraordinary resource for language testers seeking information on the Internet, as it provides access to a wide range of information about sites involved in language testing. The list is updated frequently, and information on additional resources is invited. Dr. Fulcher reviews the sites in the list for both content and style, and his evaluation of the sites can be found at a link entitled "The Language Tester's Guide to Cyberspace."

• Dr. Fulcher also maintains the home page for the International Language Testing Association (ILTA).

• The ILTA's listserv, LTEST-L, is a useful discussion forum for language testers. To join in, send e-mail to listserv@psuvm.psu.edu with
