Emergency Remote Assessment in the UK EAP sector: Challenges, Innovations and Opportunities16/11/2021
BALEAP TAFSIG Webinar
led by Dr Emma Bruce and Heléna Stakounis Emergency Remote Assessment in the UK EAP Sector: Challenges, Innovations and Opportunities RECORDED ON FRIDAY, 12th NOVEMBER 2021, 1:00pm-1:45pm Language assessment is an area which has demanded timely action and innovative contingency planning in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. To enable students and test takers to continue to access tests while complying with government safety restrictions, test providers, assessment developers, teachers and administrators were urgently tasked with adapting methods and processes. In this talk we share findings from a BALEAP-funded project investigating the immediate response to the Covid-19 pandemic across the UK EAP sector. Drawing on both quantitative and qualitative data from this large-scale research study we will share insights into the challenges, innovative strategies and in many cases, opportunities which arose as assessment teams in a variety of higher education contexts tackled the shifting landscape of the pandemic.
