| Popis | This paper examines the assessment practices employed in a specific university setting in the Czech Republic, tracing developments since the introduction of computer-based language testing at our department in 2003. Some of these changes were spontaneous, while others were necessitated, for instance, by the impact of COVID-19. Several research studies conducted at our department have explored different modes of test administration, investigating student results, perceptions and preferences. The most recent study delves into potential score differences resulting from supervised and non-supervised test administration during and post-COVID times, raising ethical and academic integrity questions. Additionally, our oral proficiency exams have undergone changes in delivery format in recent years, with the results and student attitudes yet to be presented. In this paper, we aim to highlight the main findings of the aforementioned studies, involving over 800 participants, and based on these results, we seek to outline potential future directions for language assessment in our context. |
