Eco-friendly assessment: when learning, teaching and testing become one
By bringing together socio-constructivist pedagogy, assessment validity, ecological linguistics, assessment for learning and learning-oriented assessment, we see the classroom as an ecosystem where the alignment of all the elements leads to better learning. In this session, we will explore how the way we integrate assessment into this ecosystem is crucial and will look at principles that enable us to make decisions with maximum impact.
