Abstract
Description
Language is an abstract phenomenon, making its assessment inherently complex. This complexity is amplified by the increasing global demands for high proficiency in language abilities and the accountability pressures placed on language educators. This paper explores the multifaceted challenges in the field of language assessment in the 21st century, highlighting issues such as the need for effective classroom assessments, the training of language teachers, and the reliability and validity of teacher-based assessments. Additionally, it addresses emerging challenges due to globalization and the accountability of educational institutions in preparing students for multilingual workplaces.
