Development of a prototype for the alignment between learning and teaching and assessment on sentence-to-short essay writing for middle school

The present study was aimed to develop a prototype for aligning learning and teaching with assessment on sentence-to-essay writing for middle school. In order to serve the purpose of the research, a test specification, firstly, was built based on the 2015 revised national curriculum of English, which was followed by the development of a lesson and assessment plan as well as learning and teaching materials. Then test items and exemplary answers were created for word-, sentence-, paragraph-, and short essay-level writing assessment. In addition, a scoring rubric and a prospective of providing feedback were designed and developed by benchmarking domestic and international English writing assessments. It should be well worth suggesting the followings in order to activate classroom learning and teaching and assessment for sentence-to-essay writing. Firstly, it is high time to build and provide an online English writing assessment support system to schools in order to elevate the efficiency of administration of assessment and maximize effectiveness of self-learning. Secondly, it is also recommended to open a teacher website where teachers can share and learn from know-how and experiences of learning and teaching and assessment on English writing.
