Along wit% other foreign lan- guage colleagues, the author has been par- ticipating in a comprehensive assessment proj- ect. Having accepted the principle of assessment based on proficiency mther than fact-acqukition for the four language skills, the group tried to apply the same principle to litemry interpreta- tion. ACTFL has no mting scale in this area, so the author undertook to elabomte one. The four levels of the author’sscale are based on a gmduated armngement of interpretive ac- tivitim, each composed of an action and a textual or contextual component. Since litemry inter- pretation requires strong reading comprehen- sion, the novice level presupposes an intermedi- ate-high level of reading comprehension. The notional components are sequenced from the specflc and concrete to the geneml and abstmct (e.g., from plot events to tempoml structures). They are also armnged to move readers out of a self-oriented (biogmphical) perspective into a more world-oriented one (e.g., from chamcter description to the work’s relation to its socio- cultuml or historicalcontats). Finally, the com- ponents are increasingly self-conscious. The functions progms from recognizing and distin- guishing through describing to understanding and finally to analyzing critically. The same textual/contextual component may appear at sevemllevek, each time, howevec matched with a dvferent action. The group is here concerned with the assess- ment of interpretive proficiency, not covemge. Consequently, the focus is on litemry com- ponents that can be used to interpret any work, both as a coherent textualstructure and as an ele- ment in lamer contextual fmmeworks
