Choose Cirrus for your language exams to unlock the full potential of online language assessments: With features ranging from intricate audio integration to robust security protocols, Cirrus delivers a testing environment that not only mimics real-world language use but also ensures a reliable, fair, and tamper-proof evaluation process.
Audio files can be embedded directly into any of Cirrus' question types. This facility is invaluable for simulating real-world language use, and making the test more authentic and relevant. The 20+ question types allow for the assessment of various skills, such as understanding main ideas, details, and inferences.
Go beyond traditional! In addition to audio files, a variety of media types can be used to create comprehensive language comprehension tests that mimic real-world circumstances. Infuse tests with PDFs, imagery, videos, and more, making assessments rich and dynamic.
Playback restrictions ensure that candidates engage with the material in a controlled manner, which is crucial for accurately assessing language skills. In Cirrus, examiners have the option to disable pausing and rewinding of audio files and prevent test-takers from navigating in their exam while playing audio. Examiners can even limit the number of times an audio file can be played.
The inclusion of video content in test questions allows for a dynamic, multimedia approach to language assessment, capturing nuances that text-based questions may miss. Cirrus flawlessly syncs with platforms like YouTube and Vimeo, offering a richer, more detailed assessment canvas.
Collaborate securely on marking and evaluation. In Cirrus, all actions are logged, and access is restricted to authorised personnel. This ensures that the assessment process remains confidential and tamper-proof.
Being ISO-certified means that Cirrus adheres to international standards for quality, security, and reliability. This certification adds an extra layer of trust and ensures that the platform meets stringent requirements, making it a reliable choice for language testing.
Our arsenal, packed with proctoring tools, plagiarism detectors, and secure browsers, ensures absolute integrity. This is essential for high-stakes language tests, where verifying the identity of the test-taker and ensuring a cheat-free environment are critical.
