Conclusion. 000939841 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 000939841 520__ $$aThis book advocates that teachers should play an active role in high-stakes language testing and that more weight should be given to teacher judgement. This is likely to increase the formative potential of high-stakes tests and provide teachers with a sense of ownership. The implication is that the knowledge and skills they develop by being involved in these tests will feed into their own classroom practices. The book also considers the arguments against teacher involvement, e.g. the contention that teacher involvement might entrench the practice of teaching to the test, or that teachers should not be actively involved in high-stakes language testing because their judgement is insufficiently reliable. Using contributions from a wide range of international educational contexts, the book proposes that a lack of reliability in teacher judgement is best addressed by means of training and not by barring educators from participating in high-stakes language testing. It also argues that their involvement in testing helps teachers to bolster confidence in their own judgement and develop their assessment literacy. Moreover, teacher involvement empowers them to play a role in reforming high-stakes language testing so that it is more equitable and more likely to enhance classroom practices. High-stakes language tests that adopt such an inclusive approach facilitate more effective learning on the part of teachers, which ultimately benefits all their students. 000939841 588__ $$aVendor-supplied metadata. 000939841 650_0 $$aAchievement tests. 000939841 650_0 $$aTeachers. 000939841 7001_ $$aXerri, Daniel,$$eeditor. 000939841 7001_ $$aBriffa, Patricia Vella,$$eeditor. 000939841 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tTeacher involvement in high-stakes language testing.$$dCham, Switzerland : Springer, [2018]$$z3319771752$$z9783319771755$$w(OCoLC)1022082870 000939841 852__ $$bebk 000939841 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-77177-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000939841 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:939841$$pGLOBAL_SET 000939841 980__ $$aEBOOK 000939841 980__ $$aBIB 000939841 982__ $$aEbook 000939841 983__ $$aOnline 000939841 994__ $$a92$$bISE
