WIDA vs Institutional TOEFL for university students?

Post by IntlEducator » Thu Mar 21, 2013 12:51 pm

Good morning all,

I am in a conundrum.....we are changing our ESL program from a 7 week system to semesters. Now a question has come up concerning new assessment models. I prefer to use an institutional TOEFL for assessment. Some are saying implement WIDA standards. Are these not for K-12? Thoughts? I appreciate your assistance.
