{"product_id":"9780521163910","title":"Language Testing Matters","description":"\u003cp\u003eLanguage Testing Matters explores the social and educational impact of language testing and assessment at regional, national and international level. It brings together a collection of 20 edited papers based on proceedings of the 2008 ALTE Conference in Cambridge.    The selected papers focus on three core strands addressed during the conference: new perspectives on testing for specific purposes; insights on testing policy and practice in the context of language teaching and learning in different parts of the world; reflections on the impact of testing among differing stakeholder groups.    With its broad coverage of key issues, combining theoretical insights and practical advice, this volume is a valuable reference work for academics, employers and policy-makers in Europe and beyond. It is also a useful resource for postgraduate students of language testing, for practitioners, and anyone else seeking a better understanding of the social and educational impact of language assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lynda Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52773991973182,"sku":"9780521163910","price":2189.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/files\/9780521163910.jpg?v=1766415266","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780521163910","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
