ASSESSING ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS
Reaction paper by Licda Sylvia Johnson S.
In every way of life we need instructions; and English as a second language teaching assessment is not an exception.
Good assessment mirrors good teaching, they go hand in hand. Because there are such a great variety of English teaching settings, there are also a variety of techniques.
Regardless of the setting in which you teach, assessment should be a part of instruction from the very beginning of class planning.
One will go under the light of certain situations through the experiencies of some teachers in order to:
* understand the cornerstones of all good assessment
* learn useful techniques for testing and alternative assessment
* become aware of issues in assessing reading, writing, listening, and speaking
* discover ways to help your students develop good test-taking strategies
* become familiar with the processes and procedures of assessment
