Evaluation Process in English Teaching Program

Yıl 2019, Cilt: 5 Sayı: 2, 38 - 62, 30.07.2019

Öz

In recent years,
there has been a growing interest in the employment of effective evaluation and
assessment techniques to meet the demands of 21st century foreign language
instructional practices. A further shift has also taken place to initiate innovative
and alternative assessment procedures in the continually changing and highly
demanding foreign language teaching contexts. In a sense, this review study
mainly focuses its discussion on evaluation process in English language
teaching program. At first, some common terminology identified in the recent language
evaluation literature are clarified elaborately. Next, an overview of the
paradigm shift from traditional assessment to alternative assessment in English
as a foreign language (EFL) context is elucidated. In particular, English
language program followed in primary and secondary education in Turkey was
another major issue to be held in research paper. Therefore, testing techniques
for the assessment of language skills
are discussed extensively in line with the
requirements of English language program.
Finally, necessary suggestions were advanced as to
the ways to make English language teachers use the alternatives in language
assessment.
