Abstract
Numerous references to ‘new’ literacies have been added to the discourse of various academic and public domains, resulting in a multiplication of literacies. Among them is the term ‘language assessment literacy’ (LAL), which has been used as a subset of Assessment Literacy (AL) (Gan & Lam, 2022) in the field of language testing and assessment and has not been uncontested. LAL refers to the skills, knowledge, methods, techniques and principles needed by various stakeholders in language assessment to design and carry out effective assessment tasks and to make informed decisions based on assessment data (e.g., Fulcher, 2012*; Inbar-Lourie, 2008*[1]; 2013; Taylor, 2009*, 2013*).

The journal also includes regional surveys of outstanding doctoral dissertations, topic-based research timelines, theme-based research agendas, recent plenary conference speeches, and research-in-progress reports. A thorough peer-reviewing procedure applies to both the commissioned and the unsolicited articles.
