Meeting Description:

We are delighted to announce details of the BAAL TEASIG conference 2020, to be
held at The Open University, Milton Keynes on Friday March 27, 2020.

It is time to consider some important questions such as how educational
digitalisation has influenced the construct and nature of language assessment.
What do and will teachers, students and stakeholders know and need to know
about ‘new’ assessment in a digital age? What would be the best ways to
communicate research outcomes and the rationales behind the design of future
digital language assessments? Is it possible that test takers may be more
assessment literate in a digital future than their teachers? Can the test
designers keep up with the digital linguistic skills of the test takers
themselves? What might the implications be for the digital assessment literacy
of test providers?

The BAAL TEASIG conference aims to provide a platform for researchers and
practitioners to share their research outcomes on the topic and discuss good
practices to promote assessment literacy in a digital age.


Call for Papers:

We invite proposals for this event related to the main theme and covering one
or more of the sub-themes below:

- impact of digitalisation on language test constructs
- distance-learning and assessment
- new technologies in language assessment
- assessing young learners in a digital age
- technology use in language test validation
- consequences/washback of technology use in language assessment
- automated scoring and feedback
- malpractice detection using technology
- promoting language assessment literacy using technology
- understanding the digital skills and needs of future test-takers

We wish to invite submissions to either present a 20-minute paper or a present
poster on the theme of 'Language assessment literacy in a digital age'.
