I also asked about the winter Bagrut and she wrote it wasn't for her to decide. It's the Ministry's decision.

As of summer 2008, they can not have the reader, so they will have to use 2 tapes. >What Aviva wrote about (CDs or tapes) is also an issue, but I don't agree with her, because my school has no way of recording tests on CDs , so we would not be able to have the kids practice using CDs before the bagrut...) ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - www.etni.org ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
