Historically, research on spoken language testing dates back to the
late 1920s with the majority of work starting around the time of
World War II. In contrast, signed language assessment research is a
young area, nested within signed language linguistics, deaf
education, and applied linguistics. To this day, very few signed
language tests that can be used in applied contexts are available
for learners of a signed language. This volume addresses issues
that are inherent to language assessment development, regardless of
the modality of the language. Comprised of 36 chapters, the book
takes a new approach to exploring theoretical and practical issues
related to assessment of signed and spoken languages by bringing
together well known experts from both fields to engage in
stimulating discussions about key issues related to language
assessment. Grouped around twelve topics, the volume editors
present different perspectives to emphasize the points of
similarity and chart a path for future interdisciplinary
collaborations .
