Developing a computerized dynamic assessment system for Chinese EFL learners

Dynamic assessment differs from traditional static assessment as it not only measures fully developed abilities, but also growing abilities that are not yet matured. This provides important insights into learners’ learning potential and is helpful for the planning of future instruction. Computerized dynamic assessment is a new context for dynamic assessment in which the computer automatically produces prompts to mediate and assist learner behaviour. This paper argues that a computerized dynamic assessment system of English listening and speaking holds value for both second language education practitioners and education technology specialists.
