Contemporary Second Language Assessment
Edited by Jayanti Veronique Banerjee and Dina Tsagari
Published by Bloomsbury Publishing

The chapters present new research or perspectives on traditional concerns such as test quality; fairness and bias; the testing of different language skills; the needs of different groups of examinees, including English language learners who need to take content tests in English; and the use of language assessments for gate-keeping purposes. The volume demonstrates how language assessment is informed by and engages with neighboring areas of applied linguistics such as technology and language corpora.
