Abstract

This paper aims to study the use of images as a tool for the evaluation of various European languages. In the first part, the author presents the advantages of the visual aids for learners. From this perspective he also performs the analysis of two documents relating to teaching and learning, such as the European Language Portfolio (ELP) and the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFRL). The latter of these documents is, in fact, widely used in the elaboration and the creation of exams and certificates proving knowledge of a foreign language. The essence of this research is the analysis of seven different language exams evaluating the efficiency of communication (DELE – Spanish, DELF / DALF – French, PLIDA – Italian, Cambridge – English, Goethe – German, TELC – ten European languages and baccalaureate in a foreign language in the Polish education system). Oral communication skills have been subjected to the detailed analysis due to the widespread and fairly common use of images in the assessment of this competence. In the conclusion the author notes some inconsistency and arbitrariness use of visual materials aimed at evaluation of languages.
