Abstract

forms of testing will empower these populations, and other multilingual populations, to change the way they perceive their language abilities. A significant step in the right direction would be to start classifying multilingual learners correctly in testing and to stop comparing them to monolinguals or bilinguals. Multilingual Testing and Assessment is essential to the expansion of the field of language testing and assessment. The invaluable information provided in this book can help make the testing industry more aware of the heterogeneity of multilingual learners. This awareness can lead to an increase in the visibility of assessments written in multiple languages. This book also contributes to the normalization of language mixing and code-switching and conveys the powerful message that mixed forms of testing should be allowed, given that they are an authentic representation of the way multilinguals use language in everyday communication. Multilingual learners are a representation of society’s diversity. Therefore, testing and assessment must be designed to align to meet the needs of all language learners.
教育新兴双语者:英语学习者的政策、计划和实践(第2版)
各种形式的测试将使这些人群和其他多语言人群能够改变他们对语言能力的感知方式。朝着正确方向迈出的重要一步是在测试中开始正确地对多语言学习者进行分类,并停止将他们与单语或双语者进行比较。多语言测试和评估对于拓展语言测试和评价领域至关重要。本书中提供的宝贵信息可以帮助测试行业更多地意识到多语言学习者的异质性。这种认识可以提高以多种语言编写的评估的可见性。这本书也有助于语言混合和代码转换的规范化,并传达了一个强有力的信息,即应该允许混合形式的测试,因为它们真实地代表了多语言在日常交流中使用语言的方式。多语言学习者是社会多样性的代表。因此,测试和评估的设计必须符合所有语言学习者的需求。
