Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
The rise of ChatGPT has stirred intense conversations in education, raising concerns about the loss of traditional assessment methods. The increasing emphasis on examination-based evaluations has gained attention, leading educators to wrestle with the possible standardization of academic assessments. This one-size-fits-all approach not only jeopardizes the authenticity of the learning experience but also neglects the diverse talents and strengths of students. The pressing challenge is to align the changing technological environment with the need for assessment strategies that are both inclusive and effective. Cases on Authentic Assessment in Higher Education is a publication that acknowledges the challenge posed by technological disruptions and actively seeks to provide a solution. It stands as a resource for educators and administrators navigating the complexities of contemporary assessment. By advocating for a shift towards authentic assessments, the book not only addresses the concerns raised by ChatGPT but also provides a wealth of practical examples across diverse subject areas. These examples serve as a guide for educators, offering inspiration and adaptability to enhance their teaching methods and foster a more inclusive and engaging learning environment.

The Routledge Handbook of Second Language Acquisition and Listening
Author: Elvis Wagner
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040036961
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Second Language Acquisition and Listening offers a state-of-the-art, systematic discussion of the role of listening in second language acquisition (SLA) and use. This handbook positions listening not just as a receptive comprehension skill, but also as an integral part of interaction, a vital component in the process of language acquisition, and a skill which needs attention in its own right. World-leading international scholars synthesize and contextualize the salient theoretical approaches, methodological issues, empirical findings, practical applications, and emerging themes in L2 listening development and processing. They illustrate the role that L2 listening ability plays in understanding SLA and interactional competence, and set the future research agenda to move the field forward. This volume is an indispensable resource to students, scholars, and practitioners from the fields of SLA, cognitive psychology, language teaching, and assessment, as well as those interested in pronunciation, speaking, and oral communication.
