| Summary: | This study examines the impact of IELTS tests on the
teaching practices and professional development of 20
lecturers from the Faculty of Foreign Languages at Dong Nai
University of Technology. Through online surveys and in-
depth interviews, the research sheds light on IELTS as an
assessment tool for evaluating graduates' language
proficiency and as a factor influencing teaching methodologies
and lecturers' professional growth. The findings reveal that
IELTS positively impacts various aspects, including teaching
content, pedagogical methods, and the enhancement of
lecturers' English proficiency and teaching competencies.
However, participants also faced challenges, particularly in
teaching speaking and writing skills, and expressed the need
for a comprehensive training course on IELTS assessment.
The study underscores the importance of equipping educators
with a thorough understanding of language assessment, as it
is a powerful tool for improving the quality of teaching and
learning in modern education. |
