Measure 2: Develop a Management Plan for Testing and Evaluating Students' English Proficiency


Foreign language assessment to serve the work. In addition, assessment and evaluation in foreign language centers is not based on scores as a basis for classification but only to support learning to find out how good the learning quality of students is, at the same time providing students with connections back to their learning and suggesting ways to improve their learning. If students understand this, their perception of assessment and evaluation will be more positive. They will be voluntary, self-aware, not hide their weaknesses but provide teachers and friends with necessary aspects to help them. For a small number of students who do not have real motivation to learn, teachers need to remind and encourage them to learn, pay attention when assessing and evaluating them to change their learning attitudes.

The requirements for teachers in the work of assessment and evaluation such as: correcting the work carefully, giving sincere comments, checking regularly to create a learning routine, not giving students tricky questions will help students have a good understanding of assessment and evaluation. From there, students will be serious, not cheat in tests, not absent during tests so that teachers can assess the students' real abilities and have directions for tutoring and training.

For final exams: Students need to learn the exam regulations carefully. The exam committee needs to do their best and take their responsibilities seriously to prevent unfortunate mistakes in the exam.

3.2.2. Measure 2: Develop a plan to manage the testing and assessment of students' English proficiency

Teaching and learning foreign languages ​​is a continuous, directed and controlled process, so only through regular assessment and evaluation can the process be ensured to be on target. Therefore, developing a plan for assessment and evaluation is the main content in managing this work. The plan must be based on reality, appropriate in terms of time and work, and creative. Moreover, it must also determine the program and goals, and demonstrate the means and methods for solving situations.

a. Information collection


This is the pre-target stage: The manager needs to have information about the number of classes that will complete the curriculum in the year to plan the organization of the final exam, must know the number of students who will register for the exam, information about the facilities and means to support the assessment and evaluation work. In addition, the manager also studies the situation of foreign language development, the level of the teaching staff, the level of students to have a suitable assessment and evaluation plan. Moreover, the trends that require knowledge of foreign languages


He also needs to pay attention to having appropriate testing and assessment methods for students such as enhancing practical English skills in conversational communication, or specialized English.

Managers also need to determine the purpose of assessing the level of students at each level A, B, C, and the level of specialized English of students... to see if students are capable of acquiring knowledge or not - that is, to diagnose the level of knowledge acquisition and the causes of difficulties for each student in learning. After collecting the necessary information, managers will draft an assessment plan.

b. Drafting a steering plan


To prepare a plan for assessing the level of students, managers must understand the knowledge objectives because assessing students aims to identify whether students have achieved the learning objectives, whether they have correctly understood and acquired the knowledge, and whether the lessons meet the requirements set forth and the content selection.

KT-D can be described as a cycle that starts at the learning objectives stage.

practice.


We build an English knowledge target tree to set KT-

Assessment for each English skill by stage and by level A, B, C is as follows:


To achieve these goals, managers must set out management measures in a plan based on resources and support means, and the completion time must be clearly specified.

-Building standards to manage KT-G activities at HV level


In the drafting plan, the manager identifies and builds a system of standards to manage the assessment of students' qualifications with two subjects: teachers and students.

*Building standards for managing teachers in the work of assessing student qualifications


- Set basic standards for managing teachers in the work of assessing students' level at the Foreign Language Center according to the regulations on assessment of the Ministry of Education and Training, and based on the general program goals of the Ministry and the Department of Education and Training. The manager sets requirements for teachers to carry out this work:


+ Have a plan to test the level of students in each class.


Develop a rule to check old lessons every day, 15-minute test for each group of lessons; 1-period test at the beginning of the month; check the quality of 4 skills every 2 months.

From the test regulations, teachers make test plans for their classes. Managers can grasp the test plans of each class, through the teaching plan, timetable, teaching schedule, teacher's profile, and the end time of each class to have an overall plan, and organize exams to grant certificates to students who have completed the program.

The management board monitors the teachers' teaching according to the curriculum plan. Assigns the teaching staff to record daily diary entries on the teaching situation and implement weekly reporting regimes on which classes have tests to compare with the teachers' teaching schedules. From there, the work of approving teachers' test questions is convenient and promptly suspended when there are errors in the test purpose or test content.

To do so, the manager coordinates with the professional team to compile and distribute the selected English program with test periods suitable for the English unit group. Build a system of standard exercises, at the same time provide direct guidance to test, evaluate and compare results with the expected goals.

+ Prepare quality test plan


For the test lesson plan, teachers must prepare carefully. The purpose of the test must be consistent with the content and curriculum according to the division. The test has a specific answer and grading scale and ensures the required purpose. The test is approved by the professional manager to ensure the content requirements of the test are accurate and specific. Listening skill tests must be carefully prepared for tapes and cassettes. Even 15-minute tests require preparation of answers and evaluation scores. After the test, the teacher


Must arrange a plan for marking and correcting in class and comment on and evaluate the progress or limitations of each student.

+ Unify regular quality checks


Regular quality checks, the test should be unified to only one test for each class group and the center leader should appoint teachers to create the test. This check can let the center leader know the quality of teaching and the progress of students.

+ Have a review plan for final exams


For the assessment of students' English proficiency at the end of the course, teachers in charge of the exam class are required to report on the quality of the students' test in the class and have a suitable review plan.

+ Need to innovate the method of testing English NPTH knowledge. Managers have a training plan for teachers so that they can develop a set of questions to test English NPTH knowledge using the objective-based multiple-choice method.

+ Drafting final exam plans for classes. The annual certificate exam plan needs to be specific, appropriate and drafted at the beginning of the year. This will greatly help teachers and students to prepare well for the final exam.

At Kon Tum Vocational Training Center, we have a test and examination plan for the classes, as shown in the following test plan table:


In short, managers must have high demands and regularly urge teachers to check this work. Because if teachers do this work well, that is, determine the time, purpose of the test, prepare the content and methods for the test, then the test and assessment work will be effective.

* Student management in assessment and evaluation work


+ Determine the basic standard system to evaluate student level


In the Foreign Language Center, it is necessary to define a basic standard system to assess the English proficiency of students. Teachers focus on teaching so that students are assessed according to the following standards:

-Understand the lesson.


-Apply the exercises in similar situations.


-Apply the exercises in other changed situations.


-Creative work.


-The presentation is clear, concise and scientific.


+ Organize entrance exams


Organizing entrance exams to place students in classes at the right level. The purpose of this measure is to help teachers easily impart knowledge because the level of students in the class is even.

+ Have a plan to train and tutor students


The center's managers need to have a plan for regular quality surveys to grasp the students' ability to absorb the lesson content. Thereby, there is a plan for tutoring and supplementing the missing knowledge for the students.

+ Focus on speaking test content


Speaking test requires students to have standard pronunciation, quick response, good communication skills, not shy and passive. Speaking test requirements will force teachers to focus on training this skill for students to meet the correct objectives of the lesson.

+ Organizing extracurricular activities


It is necessary to organize extracurricular activities so that students have an environment and a "playground" to practice their language. Thus, students' communication skills are improved because this is one of their purposes for learning English.

+ Organize conditional exams for independent candidates


For independent candidates, when registering for the exam at the center, they need to take a conditional exam - an exam that actually tests their English learning process. This measure limits "opportunistic" candidates.
