Greetings Everyone,
With the permission of the B-Greek management, I would like to invite
you to try the National Biblical Greek Exam at no cost. (
www.biblicalgreek.org/exam ) This online exam has been in development
for quite some time and I would greatly appreciate your professional
opinions or any feedback you may have about it. Please email me
off-list for a free promotional code and specific instructions.
The exam is offered completely online. Normally someone in addition to
the examinee must register as a proctor, but for the free evaluation you
will not need a proctor. The exam is dynamically generated from pools
of questions categorized by grammatical topic and level of difficulty.
This allows the exam to be taken multiple times. After finishing the
exam, you will see each question that was missed and have the
opportunity to comment or challenge these questions. This is an
important process for improving the exam and ensuring a fair
evaluation. A printable PDF certificate is then created that details
all of the exam results. These results include: the overall score,
national ranking, and specific scores in nine grammatical categories.
Such detailed analysis is not only designed to benefit the examinee but
it should provide the instructor with an accurate assessment of the
examinee's strengths and weaknesses.
If you teach Greek, I would also be delighted to send you free
promotional codes for your students. As soon as five students in one
class take the exam, the instructor can access class averages in the
various grammatical areas. You also will be able to see how your class
compares with others in the nation.
All performances and results are completely private. You don't have any
pressure to finish the exam if you don't have the time or are not
satisfied with it. Of course, you will find your results more
informative if you complete the fifty questions.
I am looking forward to getting your thoughts on the exam so that it may
be improved to be more effective and helpful for all who are
interested. Thank you for your work in the promotion of Greek learning.
