Test development as transformational process: The case of the Maritime Oral Communication Assessment Portfolio, book chapter in French as a Second Language in Canada: Recent Empirical Studies (Edited by Sharon Lapkin)
by Sally Rehorick, Professor, UNB and Joseph Dicks, Associate Professor, UNB

A widely held belief about the role of testing in an educational setting is that good tests can have a positive influence, or washback, on classroom praxis. This article describes the development of one such testing project. In addition to the washback noted above, the test development process itself had a larger outcome extending beyond the microcosm of the classroom to the macro level of interorganizational collaboration. This evolution is described within a framework of organizational development.
