ARIAS, Clara Inés; MATURANA, Liliana María  e  RESTREPO, María Isabel. Evaluation in foreign language learning: towards fair and democratic practices. Leng. [online]. 2012, vol.40, n.1, pp.99-126. ISSN 0120-3479.

The lack of congruence found between evaluation and pass/fail decisions in foreign languages was addressed in this interinstitutional action research project through the consolidation of a collaboratively designed Evaluation System. The implementation of the System in English beginner courses of three adult extension programs, revealed that variety in evaluation types and forms, rigor and systematicity, and the meticulous design of evaluation instruments, forms, and tasks made evaluation practices fair and democratic and benefited students, teachers, and institutions

Palavras-chave : evaluation in foreign language learning; formative evaluation; summative evaluation; democracy; fairness.
