The present study aimed at investigating alternative assessment (AA) within the Yemeni university EFL classrooms in terms of identifying the challenges of using AA to assess undergraduate EFL students from the perspectives of the faculty. Data were collected, through a questionnaire, from (66) lecturers and professors of different ranks who teach EFL at the collegiate level in two Yemeni public universities and one national university. The results of the study indicated that faculty members of English departments at Yemeni universities face some challenges of using AA to assess undergraduate EFL students. These challenges belong to various factors, including the instructional environment, the students, the management of Yemeni universities, the faculty members, or the nature of AA. Statistically significant differences were found in the mean scores according to years of experience variable between respondents with less than 5 years and those with 5-10 years of experience in favor of those with less than 5 years of experience, but not according to the type of university, gender, and specialization variables. Accordingly, some recommendations were given to address the identified challenges, which might lead to a better implementation of AA in Yemeni university EFL classrooms.

ABSTRACTIt is the main objective of this proposal to carry out a coordination of an Integral Evaluation within all the subjects taught in the Teaching English Major provided by the Faculty of Literature, Language and Science in the National University of Costa Rica. This proposal aims to involve all parties: faculty members, professors and students in order to obtain much better results in the learning process of the English Language. This Integral Evaluation procedure intends to help students see the learning of the language as a whole contemplating oral, written, spoken and listening and comprehension production as a unique element as well as a result throughout the different tasks (projects) given to students based on the topics and course objectives. The main goal is to establish this proposal as a regular activity in the major depending on the different major levels.RESUMENLa propuesta que se presenta en este artículo tiene como objetivo principal establecer una coordinación evaluativa de las materias de los diferentes cursos impartidos en el Bachillerato de la Enseñanza del Inglés (BEI) de la Escuela de Literatura y Ciencias del Lenguaje (ELCL) de la Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica (UNA). Esta propuesta de Evaluación Integral tiene el fin de lograr un vínculo entre los instructores, objetivos de los cursos y el aprendizaje del idioma per se. La evaluación integral busca que los aprendices del idioma inglés puedan ver la correlación del idioma de una manera cíclica y no aislada. En otras palabras, que el estudio de la gramática, fonética, cultura, la expresión y producción oral y escrita estén vinculadas entre sí a través de trabajos en común (proyectos) que contribuyan a la formación académica y que contribuyan al aprendizaje. Esto requiere de un estudio profundo de los planes de estudios, de los temas y objetivos y de la comunicación permanente de los académicos. La idea es establecer dicha propuesta como un eje transversal de trabajo permanente, y que se establezca como una actividad de enseñanza para los alumnos en cada ciclo lectivo en su respectivo nivel.

To gather information, the team used the interview method (via questionnaire tool) for 60 students participating in multi-level marketing business model at member universities.

However, if they participate in nefarious companies, they may face the risk of losing their money and other consequences. (2) In terms of moral life, business makes students feel happier. However, the psychology of students is not really comfortable when their learning results go down; the time that they spent on recreation and physical exercise is reduced.
