CONTENIDOS:
Teachers are increasingly expected to demonstrate an understanding of testing as part of the process of monitoring their
students. Teachers often have to write or choose tests for their students, whether as part of the end of year summation or
throughout the year to monitor progress. But what makes a good test? And how do we know that a particular test is
appropriate for a particular group of students and what we want to know about them?
In this session we will look at what skills and abilities we are trying to assess when we test someone, and then go on to
consider practical examples of what makes a good test task. We will consider validity, reliability and impact and how to
understand and prioritise them for the groups we need to test. We will look at what features are important in different types
of testing - high stakes, summative, formative etc. - and discuss some of the ethics behind testing. This will include
considering the teachers responsibility to their students and how different types of tests drive different classroom
practices. We will move on to evaluate some familiar test items such as multiple choice, as well as productive tasks in
speaking and writing, and look at the rules for test writing. Participants will also have the opportunity to consider writing
their own test items.
