The key components of Ukrainian language assessment literacy (LAL) include the following elements:
- Theoretical knowledge: Understanding principles, concepts, and theories related to language assessment.
- Practical skills: Ability to design, implement, and interpret language assessments effectively.
- Judgments and decision-making: Making informed decisions during assessment processes based on data and criteria.
- Assessment procedures: Applying appropriate methods, tools, and techniques for evaluating language skills.
- Training and professional development: Continuous learning to improve assessment competencies tailored to specific needs and contexts, including pre-service teacher education in Ukraine.
- Cultural and contextual awareness: Recognizing how linguistic and pedagogical traditions affect assessment practices.
These components are part of a systemic approach to building language assessment literacy that supports pre-service teachers and educators in Ukrainian universities.
