It considers the relationship between what is taught, and how, and what and how learning outcomes are assessed. The impact of using assessment results for setting targets and evaluation of provision for learning is also discussed.
This book helps students to develop necessary "real-life" functional skills by promoting communication and interaction in the classroom through: i) developing oral skills; ii) effectively taking on (and using) new language; and iii) reviewing what has already been learned.Every "speaking" situation in life is a communication problem, in which "meaning" needs to be transferred and information or opinions must be communicated.
