The field of multilingual testing and assessment has grown rapidly
in recent years due to the widespread need to integrate immigrant
populations into mainstream education and to provide fair and
equitable forms of assessment for all students. However, a
continuing emphasis on bilingual students has created a significant
gap in testing and assessment research. This book addresses the
need for research and guidance on testing multilingual students: at
its heart is the difference between designing multilingual tests
and testing multilingual individuals. The author introduces an
integrated approach to testing and assessment, a flexible approach
that combines information about multilingual learners' knowledge,
skills and abilities with information about their language
background and living environment. The book provides an overview of
existing research conducted with multilingual populations; provides
guidelines for test-writers, teachers and educators that outline
the steps involved in the design, administration, scoring and
interpretation of tests for multiple language speakers; and
demonstrates how to use the integrated approach to testing and
assessment in a multilingual educational context.
