Description
Evaluating Language Assessments provides a thorough examination of the theoretical foundations and research methods for evaluating language assessments. This comprehensive overview explores the broader contexts in which language assessment evaluation operates, including its social, economic, legal, and ethical implications. The book delves into quantitative and qualitative approaches to language assessment evaluation through discussions of key research studies. It is an essential resource for those studying applied linguistics, second language acquisition, and language assessment and education, as it highlights the importance of a clear understanding of the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of language assessment evaluation. By gaining a deeper understanding of these principles, readers can contribute to the development of fair assessments and more just institutions.
