Language Testing Evaluation
This document discusses language testing and evaluation. It defines formative and summative evaluation, with formative used to provide feedback during instruction and summative used to assess learning after instruction. Examples of evaluation include textbook, materials, course, and instructional evaluations. The purpose of evaluation is to improve teaching and learning, assess student progress, and identify weaknesses. Evaluation methods can be norm-referenced, comparing students, or criterion-referenced, assessing specific skills. Testing can directly assess skills or indirectly measure underlying abilities. Objective testing uses multiple choice while subjective uses human judgment. Proper testing is crucial for the teaching-learning process and provides feedback to improve curriculum and instruction.
Language Testing
Language testing involves developing and administering tests to evaluate an individual's proficiency in a language, including their knowledge, ability to discriminate, and different types of skills like achievement, proficiency, and aptitude. Tests are used to determine what a student has learned according to content standards and policies, and performance standards evaluate skills like reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Language evaluation also gauges student growth and development against learning objectives.
Testing Grammar and Vocabulary Skill
This document discusses considerations for different types of language tests. It notes that proficiency testing has low importance for directly testing limits, while placement tests have high importance. Achievement and diagnostic tests are more applicable for testing grammar through techniques like paraphrase, completion, and modified cloze exercises. Careful allocation of points is needed, separating points for items testing more than one grammar concept. Vocabulary tests for placement should sample high frequency words according to textual importance and usefulness. Both recognition and production can be tested, though production has less applicability for achievement tests. Communicative tests are less important for learning but suitable for assessing the learning process with less backwash effect.
Course Planning and Syllabus Design
This document discusses course planning and syllabus design. It begins by explaining course rationale, which describes the reasons for a course and the intended teaching/learning. Key aspects of course rationale include who the course is for, what it covers, and how learning will occur. Determining scope and sequence is also important - scope refers to breadth/depth of content coverage, while sequence considers ordering content from simple to complex. The document then discusses selecting a syllabus framework, such as situational, topical, or task-based. Developing instructional blocks like modules or units is also covered. The planning process concludes by preparing a scope and sequence plan listing modules/units and their time requirements.
Design of a speaking test
This document outlines the assessment of an English speaking test given to first year high school students in Chile. It consists of two parts: (1) individual interviews with an examiner and (2) a collaborative task where students discuss recommendations for a relative's trip to Australia. The test aims to measure vocabulary, fluency, pronunciation, grammar and ability to discuss and make recommendations. It provides context and visual aids to scaffold students' conversation. The document also discusses test construction and how the tasks relate to language skills assessed based on rubrics evaluating fluency, grammar, turn-taking and more.
Language testing
Language testing is the practice of evaluating an individual's proficiency in using a particular language. There are two main types of assessment: formative assessment which checks student progress, and summative assessment which measures achievement at the end of a term. There are five common types of language tests: proficiency tests which measure overall ability, achievement tests related to course content, diagnostic tests which identify strengths and weaknesses, placement tests for assigning students to class levels, and direct/indirect tests. The effect of testing on teaching is known as backwash, which can be harmful if not aligned with course objectives, or beneficial if tests influence instructional changes.

LANGUAGE CHOICE IN MULTILINGUAL COMMUNITIES.pptx
In multilingual communities, speakers can choose from multiple languages or varieties depending on social context. Code switching refers to alternating between languages for specific purposes, such as changing the topic or accommodating other speakers. Code mixing occurs when speakers insert words or phrases from another language without a clear purpose. How and when people switch or mix codes is influenced by who they are speaking to, the location, topic, and function of the interaction. Living in a multilingual environment requires the ability to use at least two languages and often results in code switching or mixing.

Audiolingualmethod
The audiolingual method was developed in the 1940s in response to the need for foreign language education during World War II. It was based on behaviorist theories of language learning that emphasized oral skills through repetition and mimicry. Under this method, learners played a passive role while teachers tightly controlled lessons focusing on drilling pronunciation, grammar patterns, and vocabulary through repetitive question-and-answer exchanges. By the 1960s, the audiolingual method declined as its limitations became apparent, including its inability to develop learners' communicative competence and the lack of transfer of skills to real-world settings.

The document discusses strategies for teaching metaphors to English language learners. It notes that metaphors present a language problem for second language acquisition as learners often only grasp the concrete meaning and lack cultural references. It recommends teaching both conventional and imaginative metaphors using meaningful contexts. Specific strategies include comparing cultural metaphors, studying metaphor etymology, using theme-based metaphors, conducting ethnographic research of metaphors used in different contexts, and having students write about experiences using metaphors.
Branches of linguistics
This document outlines the main branches of linguistics, including theoretical (general) linguistics, descriptive/applied linguistics, micro linguistics, and macro linguistics. Theoretical linguistics is concerned with frameworks for describing languages, concepts and categories, and theories about universal aspects of language. Descriptive and applied linguistics describe data to confirm or refute language theories and apply concepts in areas like language teaching. Micro linguistics takes a narrow view of language structure, while macro linguistics takes a broad view relating language to other sciences and its application in daily life. Specific branches covered include phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and more.
Components of language
This document discusses the key components of language: semantics, phonetics, morphology, syntax, discourse, pragmatics, and orthography.

This document provides an overview of the field of linguistics. It discusses that linguistics is the scientific study of language, including its sounds, grammar, meaning and use. It also outlines the main subfields of linguistics, which include micro-linguistics (e.g. phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics) and macro-linguistics (e.g. sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, cognitive linguistics). Each subfield is defined in one or two sentences. The document thus summarizes the key areas and goals of linguistics as a field of scientific inquiry.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
