      abstract = {"This edited volume of 17 practical chapters document  innovative practices of learning-oriented language  assessment from nine countries. It is arguably the first  exploration into learning-oriented language assessment for  teachers and teacher trainers and offers excellent examples  worthy of replication by teachers." -Antony Kunnan,  Duolingo "It gives me great pleasure to applaud the efforts  of the co-editors and authors in producing this timely  collection. These evidence-based and practical chapters are  underpinned by ten learning-oriented language assessment  principles proposed by the editors in their introductory  chapter. Plenty of food for thought for language teachers  and researchers." -David Carless, University of Hong Kong  This edited book documents practices of learning-oriented  language assessment through practitioner research and  research syntheses. Learning-oriented language assessment  refers to language assessment strategies that capitalise on  learner differences and their relationships with the  learning environments. In other words, learners are placed  at the centre of the assessment process and its outcomes.  The book features 17 chapters on learning-oriented language  assessment practices in China, Brazil, Turkey, Norway, UK,  Canada, Japan, Saudi Arabia, and Spain. Chapters include  teachers reflections and practical suggestions. This book  will appeal to researchers, teacher educators, and language  teachers who are interested in advancing research and  practice of learning-oriented language assessment.
