G-TELP Research Grant Recipients

ITSC Grant Recipient Reflect

I started working on this project with funding from ITSC. Because I have been interested in stakeholder beliefs and perceptions of language assessment, I proposed this project to ITSC as a small contribution to the test validation efforts of G-TELP

One of the greatest lessons I learned from this project is that testing companies and language assessment researchers should make more active efforts to reach out to diverse stakeholder groups to collect more validity evidence from multiple sources and raise assessment literacy of the stakeholders. Once again, I appreciate the valuable opportunity ITSC has provided.
