Chapter III. Language assessment and testing
3.1 Using different types of аssessment in lаnguаge teаching.
When teaching students, it’s important to assess what they’ve learned at regular intervals. As well as telling the student how well they’re performing, assessment results provide teachers with essential information.
Assessments are only effective, however, if you are able to use the subsequent data for a positive purpose. If an assessment highlights areas in which students are struggling to grasp key concepts, for example, the teacher can revisit these topics to ensure pupils understand them.
If assessments don’t have a clearly defined purpose or won’t be used to base future strategies on, they can cause unnecessary worry for students and take up valuable teaching time. When you’re considering how and when to assess students, it’s important to determine how the assessment results will be used. It’s also important if it will provide valuable data.
