Second Language Testing for Student Evaluation and Classroom
Research and its accompanying Student Workbook are
introductory?level resources for classroom teachers of all levels
of experience, and early?career graduate students in applied
linguistics, TESOL, and second/foreign language teaching programs.
The book gives a balance between practice and theory for student
evaluation, and also aims for readers to use testing to connect to
classroom research and to their own teaching. Indeed, Second
Language Testing for Student Evaluation and Classroom Research aims
at self?discovery and empowerment for readers, even as second
language testing as a field undergoes major shifts in scope and
areas of concern. Second Language Testing offer a strong basis for
readers who wish to analyze and improve their own classroom tests,
and for readers who wish to evaluate standardized tests they are
required to use, or are thinking of using. We work with the general
idea, "OK, now that I know test X has these strengths and
weaknesses, what do I do?" Or, "Alright here are students' scores,
now how do I use them in my teaching?" At the same time our book
provides more in?depth treatments of key testing topics for those
readers who want to know "Why?" and "How?" "Why these terms?" "Why
this or that analysis?" "Why does it work?" "How does it work?"
"What do these numbers mean?" "How do I use them and how do I
explain them to my students, my colleagues, my supervisors?" Second
Language Testing for Student Evaluation and Classroom Research
includes five Appendices for those readers whose interests continue
into more advanced areas. Our information and observations on
issues such as rater training (Appendix B) are current and
discerning, and our Reference section and Glossary would be valued
by any advanced testing practitioner or researcher. Second Language
Testing is useful to readers at varied levels of engagement, at
their choice.
