A Practical Guide to Assessing English Language Learners

Chapter 1

The Process of Developing Assessment

Once I read that a great teacher is not a person who holds many titles but is the one who’s concern deals with their students’ academic performance and outcome.            

Teachers may check up on and follow up performance improvement by using assessment activities that can provide valuable information on how well they are doing.

Assessment is an integral part of teaching which involves planning, development, administration, analysis, feedback and reflection.

Using assessment is an important tool for both teachers and students, for such reason teachers must take time and good care in their decision when creating their assessment activities sheets taking in account the goals to be achieve and the approach for the English program to be used.
