讲座内容:
This presentation focuses on classroom assessment literacy, the kind of knowledge and skills needed by EFL teachers in order to make use of assessment for formative purposes in classroom teaching. A conceptual framework of “Classroom Assessment Competence” is first introduced, followed by an illustration from the classroom practices of an EFL teacher at the secondary level in China. Besides theoretical and empirical discussions, issues in coding and analysing classroom assessment practices will also be discussed.
