This study conducted in an EFL setting investigates students’ perception of the thesis proposal presentation in an online format due to safety concerns during the Covid-19 pandemic. Fifty-five students aged 20-22 years old, level B2-C1 in English, in their fourth year of a Business Informatics Bachelor’s programme at HSE University, Moscow, were surveyed regarding their end-of-course assessment experience, which involved a Skype online presentation, rather than the usual face-to-face presentation. Data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire consisted of 3 sections and 12 items. A mixed-method approach using quantitative and qualitative data was employed. The findings indicate that emergency transition to the new format did not affect students’ satisfaction or results of the presentation. Overall, students were more than satisfied with the online format, and the results were similar, if not better, than in previous years. To minimise the disadvantages of this format, recommendations for teachers and students were offered. This study might offer new insight on the most appropriate and beneficial oral testing system for students and staff.

Covid-19 下的评估:探索本科生对其在线论文提案演示与面对面的态度

由于 Covid-19 大流行期间的安全问题,这项在 EFL 环境中进行的研究调查了学生对在线格式的论文提案演示文稿的看法。55 名年龄在 20-22 岁、英语水平 B2-C1 的学生在莫斯科 HSE 大学攻读商业信息学学士学位课程的第四年接受了关于他们的课程结束评估经验的调查,其中包括 Skype在线演示,而不是通常的面对面演示。使用研究人员制作的问卷收集数据,该问卷由 3 个部分和 12 个项目组成。采用了使用定量和定性数据的混合方法。调查结果表明,紧急过渡到新格式不会影响学生的满意度或演示结果。全面的,学生对在线格式非常满意,结果与往年相似,甚至更好。为了尽量减少这种格式的缺点,为教师和学生提供了建议。这项研究可能会为学生和教职员工提供最合适和最有益的口语测试系统的新见解。
