Learner Corpora in Language Testing and Assessment

The aim of this volume is to highlight the benefits and potential of using learner corpora for the testing and assessment of L2 proficiency in both speaking and writing, reflecting the growing importance of learner corpora in applied linguistics and second language acquisition research. Identifying several desiderata for future research and practice, the volume presents a selection of original studies, covering a variety of different languages. It features studies that present very thoroughly compiled new corpus resources which are tailor-made and ready for analysis in LTA, new tools for the automatic assessment of proficiency levels, and new methods of (self-)assessment with the help of learner corpora. Other studies suggest innovative research methodologies of how proficiency can be operationalized through learner corpus data. The volume is of particular interest to researchers in (applied) corpus linguistics, learner corpus research, language testing and assessment, as well as for materials developers and language teachers.

Performance Testing, Cognition and Assessment

Selected Papers from the 15th Language Research Testing Colloquium, Cambridge and Arnhem

This publication contains a selection of research papers presented at the 15th Annual Language Testing Research Colloquium.This publication contains a selection of research papers presented at the 15th Annual Language Testing Research Colloquium (LTRC). The Colloquium was jointly hosted by the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES) in Cambridge and CITO in Arnhem in the Netherlands. At the Cambridge venue, the papers were presented on the theme of performance testing and at Arnhem, they covered aspects of communication in relation to cognition and assessment. A selection of papers has been made in order to achieve a balanced coverage of these themes. In particular, the research presented includes work on speaking and writing tests where the focus is on raters and tasks; the application of various statistical methods in language test validation; and issues related to language testing in specific contexts and with particular candidate groups.

Improving Testing For English Language Learners

More than any book to date, this one provides a comprehensive approach to designing, building, implementing and interpreting test results that validly measure the academic achievement of English language learners. It scaffolds the entire process of test development and implementation and discusses essential intervention points. The book provides the type of evidence-based guidance called for in federal mandates such as the NCLB legislation. Key features of this important new book include the following... Comprehensive – This book recommends methods for properly including ELLs throughout the entire test development process, addressing all essential steps from planning, item writing and reviews to analyses and reporting. Breadth and Depth of Coverage– Coverage includes discussion of the key issues, explanations and detailed instructions at each intervention point. Research Focus – All chapters include an extensive review of current research. Emerging Trends – The chapters summarize guidance appropriate for innovative computer-based assessments of the future as well as the paper-and-pencil tests of today. This book is appropriate for anyone concerned with the development and implementation of fair and accurate testing programs for English language learners. This includes university based researchers, testing personel at the federal, state and local levels, teachers interested in better assessing their diverse student populations and those involved in the testing industry. It is also appropriate for instructors teaching undergraduate and graduate courses devoted to testing the full range of students in todays schools.

Underlying the limitations cited above is the fact that learning English as a
second language (ESL) is often confused with learning English as a foreign
language (EFL). Of course, there are obvious parallels between these ways of

Testing English-Language Learners in U.S. Schools:

Report and Workshop Summary

The Committee on Educational Excellence and Testing Equity was created under the auspices of the National Research Council (NRC), and specifically under the oversight of the Board on Testing and Assessment (BOTA). The committee's charge is to explore the challenges that face U.S. schools as they work to achieve the related goals of academic excellence and equity for all students. This report provides not only the summary of a workshop held by the forum on the testing of English-language learners (students learning English as an additional language) in U.S. schools, but also a report on the committee's conclusions derived from that workshop and from subsequent deliberations.

A Psycholinguistic Investigation of Agreement in Spanish and English Monolinguals and Bilinguals

The two broad goals of this dissertation are to investigate cross-linguistic and cross-dialectal differences in monolingual agreement production as a function of the richness of morphological paradigms, and to investigate how these differences may play out in bilinguals who vary in age of onset of bilingualism (early vs. late) and proficiency level (intermediate vs. advanced). Research questions ask: (1) Are there cross-linguistic differences in the production of subject-verb number agreement in English, Mexican Spanish and Dominican Spanish as evidenced by differing sensitivity to conceptual number? (2) Are there differences in the mechanics of agreement production in monolinguals and bilinguals? (3) Are there differences in how bilinguals produce agreement in each language? (4) Do age of acquisition and proficiency modulate how bilinguals produce agreement?

A Psycholinguistic Investigation of Grammatical Class in Second Language Lexical Processing

ABSTRACT: This dissertation examines a previously under-researched factor in second language (L2) lexical processing, namely, grammatical class. Although a wealth of research using monolingual and brain-damaged participants suggests that this variable is active in lexical processing, little research has examined this factor with L2 learners. The goal of this dissertation is to investigate the relative contributions of grammatical class and semantic factors in L2 lexical processing and the nature of the relationship between these two variables throughout development. Accordingly, a series of psycholinguistic experiments were conducted with native speakers of English at different stages of L2 proficiency in Spanish. The specific goal was to put grammatical class and semantic similarity in direct competition to clarify the relationship between these two variables during comprehension and production. In addition to the two comprehension and one production experimental tasks, the participants performed various proficiency measures, in order to thoroughly examine developmental differences in various domains. The results suggest that L2 learners do utilize grammatical class in L2 lexical processing and that this variable can interact with semantic similarity to affect performance. Implications for models of bilingual lexical processing are presented with respect to the inclusion of grammatical class and developmental differences.
