Chapter 7

The chapter started off with information about the different kinds of assessment and how the results are determined based on certain proficiency targets. Also the chapter talked about how teachers can use different visuals and alternative forms of assessments in order to accommodate the pace at which their student learns. I think that this chapter contained multitudes of charts and assessment techniques for the ESL learner. We focused on what TESOL standards were and how they shape the second language curriculum. Lastly liked that we were able to break off into cooperative learning groups and share thoughts/ideas.

  1. I also liked how the chapter offered different methods of language assessments. Language development depends on how well a student's progress is being monitored, analyzed, and adjusted accordingly.

  2. I enjoyed the different kinds of assessment too. I realize again that teaching and learning cannot be happen by a single answer, but multiple factors.
