| Popis: |
Although teachers are sometimes portrayed as unreliable raters because of their emotional involvement and proximity to students or test-takers, it can be argued that they have more expertise and experience in rating test-takers’ performances than most test developers. Therefore, it seems only logical to include them in the development of rating scales. This applies to both scenarios in which teachers are only responsible for preparing students for High-Stakes exams, and scenarios where teachers are responsible for test preparation as well as the rating of the test performances. Involving teachers in rating scale design can offer test developers access to a wealth of rating experience and thereby increase the validity of the scale. It can also instil an important feeling of ownership in the teachers, which seems indispensable for the promotion of positive attitudes towards High-Stakes exams. |
