In keynote presentations, Professor Antony John Kunnan, Carnegie Mellon University; Professor Guoxing Yu, University of Bristol; and Dr Paul Moore, the University of Queensland, shared an overview of their scholarly work on integrated assessment. The Symposium also included practitioner and student voices from Australia’s English language intensive courses for overseas students (ELICOS) sector in a panel discussion that considered the impacts of integrated and online assessment on assessment practices in their contexts over the previous three years. This paper provides excerpts from these speakers, contextualised with a brief discussion of DEPs globally, and focussing on the Australian university DEP context.","PeriodicalId":37337,"journal":{"name":"English Australia Journal","volume":"10 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141646289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As language assessment contexts are impacted by variables beyond the classroom, and technologised learners are increasingly striving to achieve “differentiated learning goals” (Peng et al., 2020, p. 88), the challenge is to design assessments that are more “person-centred” (Bensen, 2019, p. 60). One response is to interweave employability soft skills in English for academic purposes (EAP) direct entry program (DEP) integrated assessment. We conducted a systematic review of integrated assessment and soft skills assessment scholarship to inform integrated assessment design for supporting soft skills development in Australian university DEPs. The findings suggest that adopting a person-centred approach to the design and research of integrated assessments may more comprehensively support students’ students’ adaptive communication capacities for 21st century ambitions.","PeriodicalId":37337,"journal":{"name":"English Australia Journal","volume":"18 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141649442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given that university tasks often require the integration of language skills (e.g., writing assignments using information from lectures, articles, and textbooks), this paper proposes the use of integrated assessment tasks in DEPs to increase the authenticity in their assessment approach by using tasks that replicate actual university learning, teaching, and assessment practices. To encourage the shift from standard practice of separate skills testing to integrated assessment, we present key findings of a literature review in integrated assessment use in language programs and show how integrated assessment is implemented in two institutions in Sydney, Australia. The paper also highlights advantages of cross-institutional peer review and proposes an argument-based validity framework for test design that language centres can use to guide good practice.","PeriodicalId":37337,"journal":{"name":"English Australia Journal","volume":"22 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141647004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is viewed as a means of potentially increasing the authenticity and therefore validity of assessment that aims to measure a candidate’s readiness for the demands of academic writing. While there is a body of research seeking to identify the distinct sub-skills involved in an integrated reading to write task, there is much more limited work addressing the design of rubrics for integrated tasks for specific contexts. This paper describes the development of an integrated reading-into-writing task and rubric for students at B2+/C1 CEFR level in a PreMasters Direct Entry Program (DEP) at a university language centre in Australia. The project aimed to develop a blueprint for an integrated reading-into-writing task and rubric that captures the core constructs of synthesis writing and can be used as a basis for assessment writers to adapt to suit the parameters of other specific integrated reading into writing tasks in other programs or contexts.","PeriodicalId":37337,"journal":{"name":"English Australia Journal","volume":"7 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141648459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Integrated assessments, in which some combination of listening, speaking, reading, and writing are included and assessed, offer an appropriate form of assessment for this pedagogical context, but limited research explicitly connects the specific challenges and affordances of integrated assessments for assessing multiple literacies. The aim of this project was to consider how multiple literacies could be assessed through integrated assessment by conducting a review of the literature and applying this research to the collaborative development of an integrated listening-into-speaking task and rubric for use in our DEP programs. The proposed task and an approach to collaborative rubric development for integrated tasks is outlined.","PeriodicalId":37337,"journal":{"name":"English Australia Journal","volume":"55 34","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141644346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
