Summary:
This book addresses contemporary issues in the assessment of plurilingual
competence and plurilingual learners. Offering theoretical and practical
lenses, it contributes towards an integrated and holistic assessment of
plurilingual competence and plurilingual learners.

The book provides both theoretical considerations and empirical approaches
around how the specificities of plurilingual learners can be considered
when assessing their various competences. It covers topics relating to
learners in a variety of plurilingual settings: from the education of adult
immigrants, assessment of young refugees and assessment of students in
school and university, to the assessment of plurilingual competence in
foreign language education. Showcasing a wide range of international
authors, the book provides cutting-edge research in the domain of
multilingual foreign, second and heritage language assessment, and
assessment of content knowledge of plurilingual students. It bridges the
gap between the fields of language policies and practices, research on
plurilingual competence, and assessment in language education.

Providing new insights into a crucial and contentious issue, this volume
will be an essential reading for researchers and postgraduate students in
the fields of educational language policies, applied linguistics and
multilingualism, in particular those involved in the assessment of
plurilingual competence.
