A Focus on Language Test Development: Expanding the Language Proficiency Construct across a Variety of Tests
ed. by Thom Hudson; James Dean Brown
NFLRC Monographs Distributed for the National Foreign Language Resource Center
Eight research studies introduce a variety of novel, nontraditional forms of second and foreign language assessment. To the extent possible, the studies also show the entire test development process, warts and all. These language testing projects not only demonstrate many of the types of problems that test developers run into in the real world but also afford the reader unique insights into the language test development process.
Thom Hudson is associate professor in the Department of ESL, University of Hawaii. James Dean Brown is a professor in the Department of ESL, University of Hawaii.
