| Summary: | Assessment, be it formative of summative, has to be authentic when it comes to language learning. In ELT, we have always observed that a lot of focus has been given to how evaluation should be done. The reason why it is so is to create awareness about the process, which is essential for the future second language speakers. Now this process is generally not considered authentic as our teachers' partial focus is on assessing language development summatively, that is, the final score of the learners, and not formatively. The present paper will focus on how we as language practitioners can actually improve the evaluation process. |
