Multilingual and multimodal assessment (MULTILA)
Projekt - Fak. 2 - Englisch
Status:abgeschlossen
Kurzinhalt:How can multilingual people’s competencies be used in the teaching of second and foreign languages at universities? To date, there is little knowledge about the inclusion and assessment of learners’ multilingual skills in ways that are conducive to learning. The ‘Multilingual and multimodal assessment’ (MULTILA) project approaches this question by investigating the multilingual annotation of academic texts by students at two universities, namely, Heidelberg University of Education and the University of the Western Cape in Cape Town, South Africa. It applies the former’s didactic expertise on performance assessment and the latter’s linguistic expertise on multilingualism in order to analyze how nonverbal components of multilingual repertoires contribute to students’ processing of academic texts, and how annotations might be used for dynamic assessment.

In addition to the scientific contribution of this work, the study’s results will benefit instruction at both universities in the form of a cooperative and digitally supported submodule on the topic of multilingual and multimodal assessment. Additionally, compact learning units in the form of explanatory videos on assessment and multilingualism -- so-called ‘learning nuggets’ created as part of the project -- will be made available to the public in Germany and South Africa.
This project is funded by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry for Science, Research and Culture.
