Details

The Siraj Institute aims to develop an innovative digital platform to assess non-native language proficiency. The current challenge is to create a user-friendly, efficient, and accurate system that can evaluate language skills in real-time. The goal is to design a prototype that integrates various assessment tools, such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing modules, tailored for non-native speakers. This project will allow learners to apply their knowledge of software development, user interface design, and language assessment methodologies. The platform should be intuitive for users and provide insightful feedback on language proficiency levels. The project will focus on creating a seamless experience for both the assessors and the learners, ensuring that the platform is adaptable to different languages and proficiency levels.
