| contents | Learning for or learning with? Avaliar se avaliando for an English Language assessment otherwise Camila Haus João Victor Schmicheck Lengua y Literatura ELT Assessment decoloniality critical literacy assessment otherwise We are two teachers engaged with English language teaching (ELT) from a critical perspective. As many other instructors who share this same line of thought, we have felt discomfort throughout our careers when evaluating students. Students, in turn, have also experienced the triggering of emotions, such as insecurity and imposterism when facing a test. This happens because there is still a predominance of structuralist, modern and positivist assumptions in teaching, and more evidently, in assessment. With this background, we turned our attention to assessment in a more critical way, trying to develop a project that challenged the traditional, hegemonic, and normative paradigms in ELT and proposed an alternative otherwise. This is how, at a language center from a Federal University in Brazil, we decided to explore a different way of doing assessment by asking students to collaboratively create booklets during one semester. In this article, we present and reflect on the approach we took. We conclude by arguing that assessment can be seen as a movement of avaliar se avaliando, a practice characterized by the reflexivity of teachers and students throughout the process. 2022 artículo científico 0123-3432 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=255075117014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2550/255075117014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2550/255075117014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2550/255075117014/255075117014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2550/255075117014/movil 10.17533/udea.ikala.v27n3a10 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2550 Íkala, revista de lenguaje y cultura application/pdf Universidad de Antioquia Íkala, revista de lenguaje y cultura (Colombia) Num.3 Vol.27 |
