| Abstract | "A follow-up to the ACTFL Integrated Performance Assessment Manual published in 2003. This book provides readers with expanded guidelines for how to design IPA tasks to inform the backward design of a unit. Suggestions on how to provide effective feedback and how to improve learner performance are shared. Also included is a re-conceptualized rubric for the interpretive mode and the addition of IPA rubrics for Advanced-level language performance."--Publisher's website. |
| Abstract | What's new in the second edition of the Integrated Performance Assessment Manual? The second edition of the IPA Manual builds upon the original framework presented to guide instructors in designing and implementing this cutting-edge assessment into their language classrooms. As in the first edition, the revised manual presents an in-depth rationale for using the IPA; describes the IPA construct in detail, in particular the unique features that set it apart from other assessments; outlines step-by-step procedures for implementing the IPA and for connecting it to instruction in a seamless manner; and introduces scoring rubrics the can be used for assessing performance in the tasks across the three modes of communication. This manual has been designed for educators at any level who are interested in implementing the IPA. In-service teachers might use this manual for purposes of professional development, particularly along with an IPA workshop. In addition, methods instructors can use it to introduce the IPA to their K-12 foreign language teacher candidates and/or post-secondary teaching assistants. The manual might also be used by faculty who wish to use the IPA as a tool for planning curriculum and/or for establishing the IPA as a district- or state-wide assessment. Researchers will find many ideas in the IPA manual for conducting further research on the assessment. Undoubtedly this manual will be a valuable resource to all foreign-language educators who are in search of a cutting-edge strategy for blending instruction and assessment in a seamless fashion. - Flyleaf. |
