Its first and second editions have been successfully used in teacher-training courses  teacher certification curricula  and TESOL master of arts programs. As the third in a trilogy of teacher education textbooks  it is designed to follow H. Douglas Browns other two books  Principles of Language Learning and Teaching (sixth edition  Pearson Education  2014) and Teaching by Principles(fourth edition  Pearson Education  2015). References to those two books are made throughout the current book. Language Assessment features uncomplicated prose and a systematic  spiraling organization. Concepts are introduced with practical examples  understandable explanations  and succinct references to supportive research. The research literature on language assessment can be quite complex and assume that readers have technical knowledge and experience in testing. By the end of Language Assessment  however  readers will have gained access to this not-so-frightening field. They will have a working knowledge of a number of useful  fundamental principles of assessment and will have applied those principles to practical classroom contexts. They will also have acquired a storehouse of useful tools for evaluating and designing practical  effective assessment techniques for their classrooms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666308751413,"sku":"ByrdShop_0134860225","price":62.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780134860220.jpg?v=1782427870","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/language-assessment-principles-and-classroom-practices-9780134860220","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
