副題 Assessment in language education
講義内容 The seminar aims to introduce you to the principles and practice of language assessment. The course will examine the main approaches to language assessment and relate the underlying theory and practice to past and present second/foreign language teaching principles and methods.
講義計画 In the first semester, we will look at the testing of different language skills. To fully understand how we should test, we will examine how the teaching of language skills matches the goals of assessment.

In the second semester we will turn to considering how we can evaluate the quality of the test we create.
We will particularly concerned with the different methods of test analysis that are used by professionals involved in test construction.
評価方法 There will be no written examination. Instead, you will be asked to write one paper at the end of each semester. The first will focus on the principles and theory of assessment, while the second will be more practical and connected to test construction. These two reports will account for 50% of your final grade. The other 50% will be awarded according to your attendance and you participation in class.
