JALT’s Testing & Evaluation SIG (TEVAL) was established in 1996 with these goals:
- To publish a regular newsletter with articles related to foreign language testing and evaluation.
- To provide a venue for participants to exchange, research, and discuss testing-related concerns.
- To organize local, regional, as well as national events under the auspices of JALT.
- To host a range of activities at the annual JALT conferences.
- To ensure regular ties with the affiliates of other professional organizations with common interests and goals such as TESOL, JLTA, and ILTA.
- To establish a comprehensive testing & evaluation database that will serve as a resource for research as well as practical classroom use.
