2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

PERORMANCE TEST
A performance test is an assessment that requires an examinee to actually perform a
task or activity, rather than simply answering questions referring to specific parts. The
purpose is to ensure greater fidelity to what is being tested. An example is a
behind-the-wheel driving test to obtain a driver's license. Rather than only answering
simple multiple-choice items regarding the driving of an automobile, a student is
required to actually drive one while being evaluated.
USES OF PERORMANCE TEST
Performance tests are commonly used in workplace and
professional applications, such as professional certification and licensure. When used for
personnel selection, the tests might be referred to as a work sample. However
performance assessments may be a more valid indicator of students' knowledge and
abilities. There is a big difference between answering multiple choice questions on how
to make an oral presentation and actually making an oral presentation.
More important, performance assessment can provide
5. improving instruction, and increase students' understanding of what they need to know
and be able to do. In preparing their students to work on a performance task, teachers
describe what the task entails and the standards that will be used to evaluate performance.
This requires a careful description of the elements of good performance, and allows
students to judge their own work as they proceed.
PURPOSE OF PERFORMANCE TEST
The purpose of performance assessment is to evaluate the
actual process of doing science or mathematics. Performance assessments examine
students' actual application of knowledge to solve problems. In some cases, the solution
of the problem may imply the application of a specific procedure learned in class; in
others, a combination of procedures; still in others it may require a thoughtful
adaptation of students' knowledge. The assessment of student's knowledge focuses on
the performance and the result.
STEPS IN THE PROCESS OF PERFORMANCE TEST
Carefully construct the learning goals for the instructional unit
• Decide if performance assessment supports student learning and assessment for
these goals
• Clearly define the knowledge and skills students need to apply or demonstrate in
solving a problem.
• Determine the criteria (standards) against which students will be judged and
define indicators of” levels” of competence.
• Inform students of your expectations that students have every opportunity to
clearly demonstrate to that course learning objectives have been mastered
• Design an authentic task that is somewhat undefined, complex, and has multiple entry
and exit points.
• Determine which distinct components of the task need to be analyzed.
• Directly observe students or develop a structured student-answer sheet that allows
you to evaluate various components of the task.
• Match student performance to criteria (standards) and determine which level most
6. closely matches student performance.
• Provide student feedback in terms of levels of competence, not numerical scores.
CONCLUSION
Performance test may be understood as the assessment of an individual
performance. It also helps to understand the performance of a student and
improving their instructions. Performance test examine student’s actual application
o knowledge to solve problems.
