Authors : Bouchama-sari Ahmed Fizya .
Abstract
Abstract This paper examines the importance of assessment in the LMD system along with the shift from traditional assessment in the classical system to continuous assessment in the LMD system. It also paper looks at the issue of continuous assessment in the methods of teaching and assessing language skills class taught to third year undergraduate students in the English department at the university of Algiers 2. Since assessment is not synonymous with testing, it should be continuous throughout the teaching and learning process in the classroom. In other words, teachers have the possibility to use alternatives in assessment in addition to administering tests. For this reason, assessment tools such as paper and pencil tests, a collection of projects in a portfolio and self-assessment are suggested to assess third year students’ achievement in the methods of teaching and assessing language skills class. Finally, this paper evaluates the assessment tools recommended in terms of the five principles of assessment, namely practicality, reliability, validity, washback and authenticity.
