I have very mixed feelings about the tests & our reliance on them for the Seal, but also for evaluating programs. In my school, we have used both (STAMP & AAPPL). I wish language teachers would talk more about this, because I can’t be the only one seeing this! (4/4) #langchat #edusky

Can any #langchat teachers point me to an actual human being in ACTFL or LTI I can speak with regarding how some of my students’ writing on AAPPL Form B has been scored? I did rating reviews on both (1 too high, 1 too low) and both came back exactly the same! I am baffled!! @actfl.bsky.social (1/2)

AAPPL results, observation #1: French speaking scores in my high school are significantly lower than those of other languages. Most kids scored I1 or lower! Most of the French kids scored I2 or higher on all the other parts. #langchat

That is good to hear. When we used STAMP, the French listening scores were always in the Novice range with few exceptions exceptions (we tested seniors). We have in general had more consistent results with AAPPL, except for the past 2-3 years (mainly speaking has been the issue)

The thing I struggle with is feeling that I’m doing the right thing as a teacher, then feeling crushed when I have many students with low scores. I’ve had this experience with both STAMP and AAPPL.

AAPPL grading question:Are graders required to listen to ALL of the speaking prompts & ALL of a student's recording? If not, how much are graders required to listen to in order to rate a sample? In my estimation, grading ONE speaking test could take 20-25mn if listened to in its entirety. #langchat

Attention teachers who give the AAPPL exam: it is not as secure as we think! The Grammarly extension can be used while writing & you won’t be logged out! We’re dealing with some cheating instances right now 😕 #langchat

Below are my senior students’ speaking score breakdowns on AAPPL Form B, 2024 & 2025. Question #1: Why almost no scores of I2 or I3? Someone on Twitter last yr noticed same score trend but I can’t find the post! Thoughts??? #langchat

Are you getting ready to do language proficiency testing with your high school ss in the coming months? My belief is that success on these tests is, like most standardized tests, about knowing how to take the test! See my tips in this blog post!: #langchat mmewagstaff.wordpress.com/2024/06/13/h...

I received the following response from LTI on the other app. My original question was whether or not scratch paper is allowed for AAPPL, which is an online test. Just sharing if anyone is interested! #langchat

Question about AAPPL: can students use scratch paper at all during the test, as long as it is distributed and collected by the proctor? I have pored over the proctor guide & can't find anything that says "yes" or "no". Thanks for your help! #langchat

What a fantastic #QuanQiuHua #HowICNX meeting! Middle School Mandarin and Spanish teachers shared best strategies and practices—Ms. Yang on AI tools, Ms. Chang on AAPPL prep, and Ms. Giron on a vocabulary game for oral proficiency.

Thank you! My students consistently achieve Superior Low on the listening parts of Avant and AAPPL tests. Always looking for new strategies 🙂
