Abstract

This presentation showcases an approach developed by Theresa Federic that integrates assessment into class teaching to further support the social construction of contextual, pragmatic, and mediatic skills within a collaborative process-driven approach to teaching. Grounded in research on language pedagogy, educational psychology, learner identity and motivation, this approach maps language curriculum and assessment design to Universal Design for Learning to foster awareness of diversity and to support inclusivity and accessibility for all learners. By asking curriculum and assessment designers to articulate the purpose (why), the intended audience (who for), and the scenario (real world/professional), assessment can become an active part of the creation of an Ideal L2 Future Self. This perspective enables teachers to think more creatively and flexibly about in-class activities and the modalities of assessment. Dr Xiaoli Wu will showcase an example of creativity in assessment design, documenting the impact of collaborative and creative assessment on students’ engagement and motivation.
