Language Testing and Evaluation

LTE 25 Dina Tsagari / Ildikó Csépes (eds.) · Classroom-Based Language Assessment

While research into aspects of standardised language tests is growing, the area of classroom-based language assessment (CBLA) is still not well-defined and relatively under-researched. Studies investigating CBLA practices within the ESL/EFL school contexts as well as the tertiary level have stressed the need for further research as the picture is not yet complete. The volume aims to address this challenge by presenting a wide scope of research interests that discuss theoretical and practical underpinnings of CBLA. It is also meant to promote the notion of CBLA for a wide membership of the language teaching and testing community covering topics that consider both realities and prospects of CBLA in the assessment world.

Dina Tsagari is a lecturer in Applied Linguistics/TEFL at the Department of English Studies at the University of Cyprus. Ildikó Csépes is a lecturer in Applied Linguistics/TEFL at the Institute of English and American Studies at the University of Debrecen (Hungary). They have both taught, researched and published extensively in the field of language testing and assessment.
