No British Council acreditamos que o desenvolvimento e aprendizado da língua inglesa e suas tendências não são estáticos, mas sim um conjunto de práticas em constante evolução.
Por isso, em maio de 2023, realizamos a conferência New Directions Latam 2023, evento que reuniu especialistas para debater tendências e abordagens na avaliação da língua inglesa sob perspectivas nacionais e internacionais.
No British Council não queremos que todo o aprendizado desses dois dias de evento fique restrito a aquele momento. E é por isso que queremos continuar a conversa com este magnífico webinar com Laura A. Meza.

At the British Council, we believe that the development and learning of the English language and its trends are not static; instead, they are living concomitants that change the more they are practised.
That is why, in May 2023, we held the New Directions Latam 2023 conference, an international event that brought together specialists who provide global and national perspectives on trends and approaches in English language assessment.
At the British Council, we want everything learned in this event to be shared, and that is why we want to continue the conversation with this magnificent webinar with Laura A. Meza.
Abstract
Rethinking Evaluation: Innovative Assessment Design for the 21st CenturyCenturyorld heavily dominated by what technology can do for us, schools, teachers, and students, win or lose, depending on how well they develop and incorporate digital literacy and critical thinking into their programs and more importantly, into their assessment systems. In this session, we will explore the concept of equality (everyone's evaluation is the same) vs equity (evaluation is fair for everyone) in assessment systems. We will also examine innovative strategies and practical examples of assessment that go beyond traditional methods, offering educators fresh perspectives and actionable ideas. The exploration of these strategies aims to help us reflect on how assessment systems should be designed for deeper engagement and learning in the English language classroom. As the world evolves, rethinking evaluation seems to be of utmost importance to advance the goals of education in the 21st century.
