Baal/CUP seminars 2007
The rationale for the seminar was primarily that there are links between language testing and assessment on one hand and applied linguistics on the other which could be mutually beneficial, but are not necessarily perceived as such.

Understanding teachers as agents of assessment
Conglomeration or Chameleon? Teachers' Representations of Language in the Assessment of Learners with English as an Additional Language
Changes in the role and nature of metalanguage used in schools, brought about by the National Literacy Strategy (DfEE, 1988), instigated this paper, which investigates teacher representations of language in relation to assessment contexts.

This study is part of our resear…

So, why do we need relationships with stakeholders in language testing? A view from the UK
Stakeholders are identified as those who make decisions and those who are affec ted by those decisions. Such a definition makes the range of possible stakes in assessment and testing very wide. These 'stakes' are categorized in terms of test research and development functions, curriculum innovation and implementation, and accountability functions. The article examines some of the contributions that stakeholders such as learners, teachers and pare…
