摘要

The IELTS and TOEFL iBT have attempted to incorporate communicative approaches andtechnological developments, resulting in very different testing methods for oral skills in the forms offace-to-face and computer-mediated speaking tests. Scrutiny on such issues as validity and reliabilityhas inevitably focussed on the opinions of academics and university stakeholders, largely ignoring thereactions of the candidates to these instruments. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare testtakers'attitudes towards the validity of the IELTS and TOEFL iBT speaking sections in the context ofthe implementation of the exam.Despite anxiety being expressed towards the use of computers in the TOEFL iBT, it was viewed asacademically valid. The IELTS speaking was not viewed as valid for its academic function, but was forgeneral English. Stronger feelings of validity towards face-to-face exams were expressed, yet overallthe notions of personal preference and choice in testing method indicated that test developers need todo more in the future to promote and raise awareness of the options that are available now due totechnology. More choices for the candidates in topics, format and interaction style will boostperceptions of validity and so may be pertinent areas of focus for future technology based testdevelopment.
