SINOPSIS

How can English teachers develop Listening and Reading assessments that reflect students abilities and learning needs? This book offers theoretical foundations and practical guidance for developing CEFR-aligned receptive skills assessments for junior high school students, with particular attention to levels A1-A2. Drawing on established principles of language assessment, the book explores how CEFR descriptors can guide assessment practices aligned with Indonesia’s national curriculum, particularly Phase D. It guides readers through developing learning indicators, preparing test blueprints, designing Listening and Reading tasks, reviewing item quality, and interpreting assessment results. The book also discusses Grammar and Vocabulary as supporting language knowledge and introduces the responsible use of artificial intelligence in developing listening materials. Primarily written for junior high school English teachers, this book also serves as a reference for prospective teachers, university students, teacher educators, curriculum developers, and researchers. Through practical examples and adaptable resources, it aims to support meaningful, fair, and evidence-based assessment practices in English language education.
