This paper presents ETET, a web-based application for the automated assessment of L2 proficiency. The main contribution of this work lies in its focus on Italian – a language for which no comparable tools currently exist. Another novelty is the departure from traditional assessment models. In fact, the theoretical framework is grounded in CEFR and Processability Theory, allowing an assessment that reflects the natural developmental sequences of the learners’ interlanguage. ETET is not intended to replace human raters, but rather to serve as a complementary tool, since it ensures rapid scoring. Additionally, it has customizable and diversified test formats and items, making it a resource suitable for educational contexts, certification, and selection purposes.

Abstract
This paper presents ETET, a web-based application for the automated assessment of L2 proficiency. The main contribution of this work lies in its focus on Italian – a language for which no comparable tools currently exist. Another novelty is the departure from traditional assessment models. In fact, the theoretical framework is grounded in CEFR and Processability Theory, allowing an assessment that reflects the natural developmental sequences of the learners’ interlanguage. ETET is not intended to replace human raters, but rather to serve as a complementary tool, since it ensures rapid scoring. Additionally, it has customizable and diversified test formats and items, making it a resource suitable for educational contexts, certification, and selection purposes.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
