This article aims to describe how to design metadata for item bank - based Korean proficiency test. With the progress of computer technology, the techniques for assessing foreign language competency are also rapidly being developed. a number of large-scaled, high-risk proficiency tests such as ‘iBT TOEFL’, ‘TOEIC’, ‘IELTS’ and ‘HSK’ have already adopted computer-based item bank testing systems. However no large-scaled Korean proficiency test is implemented by computer-based or internet-based item bank system. Item banking of a Korean proficiency test enables test items to be accumulated, retrieved, upgraded with ease. To enables these functions, each item needs to be described with metadata, which is information about the assessment item, and can be highly detailed key fields. Therefore, designing metadata schemes and standard are to establish a foundation of a computer or internet-based item bank system for a future Korean proficiency test. This article studies the basic functions that item bank for a Korean proficiency test can perform, researches metadata of other item banking systems, and suggest the framework of metadata standards for an item bank based - Korean proficiency test.
