Description
Comprehensibility in Language Assessment: A Broader Perspective by Parvaneh Tavakoli and Sheryl Cooke is a thought-provoking exploration of how language assessment can be improved. The authors argue that a more holistic approach to understanding comprehensibility, taking into account broader linguistic and socio-pragmatic factors, would benefit the fields of second language assessment and second language acquisition. The book proposes a multidimensional construct of comprehensibility and offers insights into its analysis for communication purposes. By adopting this perspective, educators and researchers can gain a deeper understanding of how to assess and improve spoken language ability.
