From Testing to Assessment: English as an International Language
provides a critical review of conventional and alternative
approaches to the assessment of English literacy skills in various
parts of the world. It presents empirical studies conducted in
three major settings: in countries such as Japan and Brazil where
English functions as the language of international commernce; in
multilingual countries such as Nigeria and Zimbabwe where English
is the national language of education and government; and in such
countries as Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States where
English is the dominant language.The book opens with a discussion
of language assessment in relation to debates about the nature of
literacy; it concludes with a discussion of policy implications,
which is grounded in literacy theory as well as in practical
constraints such as available human and material resources.
