Language Assessment and Testing flowcharts

These flowcharts cover assessment principles, types of tests, feedback on writing and approaches to testing. They also look at initial assessment, assessment during a course and decisions with different levels of importance.

How to use the flowcharts

Start with Principles of Language Assessment for a view of practicality, reliability, validity, authenticity and washback. Then use Approaches to Assessment to explore discrete-point and integrative testing.

As you read, follow the branches and note how the ideas are grouped. Close the flowchart and try to sketch the relationships from memory, then reopen it to check what you missed. For a different topic, Feedback and assessment of writing brings feedback and assessment together.

If you want another way to revisit an idea, switch to a mind map on the unit page. Flashcards are another option for a shorter review. Pick a flowchart and follow a branch that interests you.
