Cet article présente le développement et la validation d'un système d'évaluation de l'écrit. L'on présente deux processus essentiels qui sont la validation du construct linguistique et des tâches évaluatives puis l'élaboration et la validation des instruments évaluatifs. La validation du construct a été déterminée à travers sa définition et son alignement avec les standards d'écriture par niveau de suffisance, et avec les tâches évaluatives. Afin de valider ces dernières, nous avons analysé leur contenu en répondant à des critères pour le développement des activités évaluatives appropriées et en demandant aux étudiants leur compréhension des instructions écrites. Nous avons élaboré des grilles d'évaluation et leur validité a été définie selon leur alignement avec les standards, le construct et l'estimation de fiabilité interne chez les évaluateurs (r > = 0.7).
