Summary/Abstract: This article aims to underline the influence that the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages has had upon the evaluation process. The performance-based action-oriented assessment, which is made through task completion activities, allows students to measure their own progress in "real life" terms. The detailed descriptors the CEFR provides for each of the six levels represent a constant and reliable frame of reference, a guarantee for transparency and objectivity.
