= Considering Evidence of Language Learning = [|PSP_PPT Mod_13KF.ppt] Why is the idea of a model attractive in assessment?Shared understanding so that e.body has a clear picture of what is wanted. But not to be restricted to this model. Refer to the example related to the "spotlight" How do i proceed? Focus on the interaction/tools for making judgements... Then see Interpretation of performance...

IN this module, what seemed interesting to me is the questioning of the various ways of learning language: Example: Stand up and look for a partner so as to solve a problem. What's the evidence i have in this activity is the whole effort from the student to first engage and communicate, then cope together for problem-solving.... Language is a social activity...where there should be reciprocity... So, let's take into account the learning part in a lesson...What have they learnt? What efforts have they put together to produce language and to analyse how it works to be able to express one's thoughts.

So, what do we see? Can we insert other 'invisible factors important to learning' because most of the time we look at results and not the process needed to achieve the results... Ex ; Create a role-play aboutxxxxx? Did we value the effort for the text as well/ the final performance/ the difficulties of putting together the elements to make it happen?
