Societal dimensions (e.g. test fairness issues) and psychological aspects (e.g. individuals, accepted on the premises of post test-prep IELTS scores, achieving less than what they are capable of because of limited langauge proficiency) should also be recognised and explored.
Thanks for starting this thread Danijela! On top of what is said, I'd like to highlight that the effects of teaching to the test extend beyond learning outcomes.
🧵A thread on two recent papers with @HuRowling on how teaching to the test affects English language proficiency scores with which #InternationalStudents apply for #university places. We explored this on the example of #IELTS, but the point is broader.

My paper on test preparation and repeated test taking just got accepted for presentation at #ALTE2020 Mardrid. This will be my first time attending (and presenting) at the ALTE conference (and my first time visiting Mardrid). Cannot wait! 🤩
Looking forward to presenting my paper on the impact of test preparation and repeated test taking on the predictive validity of IELTS tomorrow at the #ltf2019 tomorrow afternoon, 16:30-16:50.

@DrTAktar Hi Tasnima, we have submitted this work for publication. I will keep you updated when it is accepted. I assume you'd find the paper more informative than the slides.
@RevolutApp Hi, when I try to initiate a new chat, a notice from revolut comes out concerning employee never asking for PIN and then when I press got it, I was forced back to the How can we help page. Simply have no idea why this is happening.
