Listening sub skills

I'm trying to assess the listening skill for students
so I'm thinking of the following as sub skills for listening skill

1- Understanding the audio material
2- Analyzing the audio material
3- Evaluating the validity of information in the audio material.

what do u think of no 3 is it correct ? and if yes what verbs can go under it . Also , Is there a difference between 2 and 3 or I should just join them together to be one sub skill

any suggestion in this read would be greatly appreciate

thank

Hi

That's not something I've really investigated! I tend just to converse in the forums

But I've looked at the settings and I think they're now set to 'open'. If not, do post back :-)
