This edited volume examines how transnational English language
assessment practices are envisioned, enacted, and justified by
different stakeholders, including students, teachers, and
universities in different geographical contexts, and what would be
the multi-level consequences of such practices. Bringing together
diverse perspectives from across the Global South and Global North,
the book argues that the field of English language assessment has
always been transnational, despite an absence of a research that
explicitly examines English language assessment practices in
relation to transnationalism. The contribution of this volume lies
in filling in this critical scholarly gap. Through a wide set of
epistemological, theoretical, and pedagogical interventions along
with methodological orientations and analytical frameworks, the
chapter authors question the social, economic, political,
linguistic, and pedagogical consequences of transnational English
language assessment practices in higher education (HE) settings and
contexts. Offering fresh perspectives on English language
assessment practices in relation to transnationalism, this book
will be of great interest to researchers, academics, and
post-graduate students in the fields of applied linguistics,
Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), and
language assessment more broadly.
