The BINL (© 1979) is used to generate a measure of the K-12 student’s oral language proficiency. The test must be administered individually and uses large photographs to elicit unstructured, spontaneous language samples from the student which must be tape-recorded for scoring purposes. The student’s language sample is scored based on fluency, level of complexity and average sentence length. The test can be used for more than 32 different languages.
