초등영어 말하기 수행평가 프로파일 차트 개발 및 활용 분석

Abstract

The purpose of this study aims to develop a profile chart for speaking performance assessment and implement it in primary English classes. Considering some major theories and principles regarding speaking assessment which are performance assessment and learning-oriented assessment, as well as the teaching and assessment context of primary English teaching, a profile chart of speaking performance assessment was developed. To conduct the research, 24 primary school teachers participated and some of them used the chart and then shared their experiences in using the chart in their English classes. Through this process, the profile chart was revised and confirmed. According to the results of the study, the participating teachers were all satisfied with using the speaking assessment profile chart for in-class assessment. Teachers responded that the chart could be used for assessment purposes as expected, that it could be used within the scheduled time frame in the classroom, and that it was relatively easy to record and manage. They also responded that in consideration of the characteristics of the speaking activity for each class period and the number of students who could be assessed at one class period, another customized chart form should be developed. Other issues for further investigation and examination were suggested in the last part of the study.
