Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to introduce a reformed evaluation approach and to probe into the attitude of the students to the new evaluation system in accordance to a reformed CALL environment. A questionnaire survey is conducted in the experimental class to get a general idea of the learners' identification and acceptance degree to the new evaluation approach. The results show that the reformed evaluation approach has won acknowledgement from an increasing number of students in experimental classes. Nevertheless, further efforts have to be made to ensure the reliability and the credibility of computer-based assessment in order to improve the evaluation approach in the CALL context. In the end, the authors summarize the advantages of the reformed evaluation approach under CALL mode over the traditional one, as well as the problems of the new approach.
