As such, it is a requirement that those activities be aligned with targeted competence, or learning outcomes. With broad understanding of outcomes, tests might also be considered as an outcome-based assessment tool, the quality of which can only be assured by a so-called “outcome-based” test spec. This paper, hence, presents various understandings of ‘learning outcomes’, and how testing can be adjusted to fit in with outcome-based assessment. Accordingly, different models of test specifications are reviewed and critiqued, followed by the proposal of a test specification model that is likely to facilitate outcome-based educational system. 2017-09-12T07:33:09Z 2017-09-12T07:33:09Z 2016 Article 2525-2445 http://repository.vnu.edu.vn/handle/VNU_123/58957 en Vol 32;No 4 application/pdf H. : ĐHQGHN
