Evaluating Second Language Courses

<p>Typically books on evaluation in the second and foreign language field deal<br />with large programs and often result from large?scale studies done by the<br />authors. The challenge for ordinary second and foreign language classroom<br />teachers is that they must extrapolate techniques or strategies for<br />evaluation from a very large scale to a much smaller scale that of the course. At the same time<br />classroom teachers are responsible for outcomes of their courses and need to do evaluation on a<br />scale and for needs of their choosing. Evaluating Second Language Courses is designed for<br />classroom teachers who are dealing with a single course and who wish to understand and<br />improve some aspect of their course.</p>
