The teaching process consists of four pillars: the teaching objectives, the needs and preparations of the students, the input of behavioral inputs, experiences or educational activities, and the measurement and evaluation. These four pillars are interconnected to each other organically so that one cant be dispensed with the other. Therefore, this research aims to know the calendar in general. The research also deals with the knowledge of the good test specifications in the Islamic schools, especially the secondary school, and the quality of the exam in the final exam in the academic year 2015/2016.إن العملية التدريسية تتكون من أربعة أركان وهي الأهداف التدريسية وحاجات واستعدادات التلاميذ المساة بالمدخلات السلوكية والخبرات أو الأنشطة التعليمية ثم  القياس والتقويم. وترتبط هذه الأركان الأربع بعضها ببعض ارتباطا عضويا بحيث لا يستغنى أحدها عن الأخر. لذا، يهدف هذا البحث إلى معرفة التقويم بوجه عام، كما يتطرق البحث إلى معرفة مواصفات الاختبار الجيد في المدارس الإسلامية بخاصة المدرسة الثانوية ومعرفة جودة الاختبار في الامتحان النهائى المقنن فيها للعام الدراسي 2015/2016 مـ.

The purpose of this chapter is to share an assessment model built specifically upon teacher collaboration and, more broadly, to encourage readers to consider the power of collaboration within an intensive English program (IEP). After examining traditional assessment challenges faced by IEPs, the chapter presents a collaborative assessment model, the basic premise of which is that teachers of the same students across three core courses within the same IEP level work together to create a common midterm and final exam. The model is examined in light of the five assessment principles of validity, reliability, practicality, authenticity, and washback. Finally, benefits and challenges of teacher collaboration are considered from the perspective of program administrators.

The question of whether a learner in bilingual education can have the same performance in both languages is a vexed issue as it has long been investigated with controversial findings. This research was conducted in “Barrack Obama” bilingual private school of Dakar with a French-English program. The first and second semester marks of twenty-two learners in 8th grade have been used to measure the latter’s performance in the two languages during the academic year 2018-2019. It follows our analysis that fifteen of these students have a similar annual grade in both languages while three others show more performance in French; and the remaining four are better at English. However, the study also shows that the said balanced bilinguals have lack of proficiency in both languages. Only few of them (4) have good and equivalent proficiency in both languages while the remainder show weaker performance. This imbalance is surely due to the age at which he learner enters the bilingual system, their IQ and their ability to learn languages as well.

Cooperative Learning is an instructional model in which learners work together toward a common goal (Johnson & Johnson, 1986; Slavin, 1993). Research has clearly shown that cooperation results in higher levels of achievement (Johnson, et al., 1993). This article focuses on Cooperative Assessment, two students, one paper, as learning, and proposes viewing assessment as an integral part of the process of learning and teaching by trying to provoke thoughts about positive interdependence, individual accountability and social skill development, three key features of Cooperative Learning. The paper presents pre-service English Language Teachers’ reflections on Cooperative Assessment used as part of the final exam for “Individual Differences in Foreign Language Learning” course in Fall Semester of 2018-2019 academic year. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0870/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

This study explored the relative effect of student- and teacher-centered instruction on EFL freshmen&rsquo;s affect (anxiety, motivation, attitude, autonomy, self-efficacy and beliefs about English and its learning) and achievement. Two classes of English department freshmen at Shaqra University, KSA participated in the study. Students in the two classes completed a questionnaire probing the target affective variables. An independent t-test proved that the two classes were homogenous in affective variables before the treatment. The treatment class was taught according to student-centered instruction for an academic year. The control class was taught the same courses according to the conventional teacher-centered instruction. The students completed the questionnaire probing their affect. A composite mark of final exam marks of three courses was used as an index of achievement. Analyses of independent sample t-test proved that the treatment class outperformed the control class in all affective variables (except for instrumental motivation) and achievement.
