Automated Speaking Assessment Using Language Technologies to Score Spontaneous Speech

Automated Speaking Assessment Using Language Technologies to Score Spontaneous Speech

Automated Speaking Assessment: Using Language Technologies to Score Spontaneous Speech provides a thorough overview of state-of-the-art automated speech scoring technology as it is currently used at Educational Testing Service (ETS). Its main focus is related to the automated scoring of spontaneous speech elicited by TOEFL iBT Speaking section items but other applications of speech scoring such as for more predictable spoken responses or responses provided in a dialogic setting are also discussed. The book begins with an in-depth overview of the nascent field of automated speech scoring—its history applications and challenges—followed by a discussion of psychometric considerations for automated speech scoring. The second and third parts discuss the integral main components of an automated speech scoring system as well as the different types of automatically generated measures extracted by the system features related to evaluate the speaking construct of communicative competence as measured defined by the TOEFL iBT Speaking assessment. Finally the last part of the book touches on more recent developments such as providing more detailed feedback on test takers’ spoken responses using speech features and scoring of dialogic speech. It concludes with a discussion summary and outlook on future developments in this area. Written with minimal technical details for the benefit of non-experts this book is an ideal resource for graduate students in courses on Language Testing and Assessment as well as teachers and researchers in applied linguistics. | Automated Speaking Assessment Using Language Technologies to Score Spontaneous Speech

Validation of Score Meaning for the Next Generation of Assessments The Use of Response Processes

Validation of Score Meaning for the Next Generation of Assessments The Use of Response Processes

Despite developments in research and practice on using examinee response process data in assessment design the use of such data in test validation is rare. Validation of Score Meaning in the Next Generation of Assessments Using Response Processes highlights the importance of validity evidence based on response processes and provides guidance to measurement researchers and practitioners in creating and using such evidence as a regular part of the assessment validation process. Response processes refer to approaches and behaviors of examinees when they interpret assessment situations and formulate and generate solutions as revealed through verbalizations eye movements response times or computer clicks. Such response process data can provide information about the extent to which items and tasks engage examinees in the intended ways. With contributions from the top researchers in the field of assessment this volume includes chapters that focus on methodological issues and on applications across multiple contexts of assessment interpretation and use. In Part I of this book contributors discuss the framing of validity as an evidence-based argument for the interpretation of the meaning of test scores the specifics of different methods of response process data collection and analysis and the use of response process data relative to issues of validation as highlighted in the joint standards on testing. In Part II chapter authors offer examples that illustrate the use of response process data in assessment validation. These cases are provided specifically to address issues related to the analysis and interpretation of performance on assessments of complex cognition assessments designed to inform classroom learning and instruction and assessments intended for students with varying cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
