Abstract

This Element reviews the key foundational concepts, beliefs,
and practices underpinning approaches to assessment in English
language teaching. Exploring major concepts and practices through
educational, social, and ethical perspectives, it offers theoretically
informed and close-to-practice descriptions and up-to-date
explanations of the affordances and limitations of different assessment
approaches related to language teaching. This Element presents
a cohesive and pragmatic framework that allows teachers to efficiently
implement tests and assessments in their contexts.
