Welcome to pod-battle, compliments of TEFLargue. Listen, and learn how to win a fight and alienate people. Anyway, what role to tests play in a teacher's life? Should a teacher worry excessively about test quality, or just get them done to submit scores? Do exams really make any difference in language teaching, especially in schools? In Troy's defense, he did come up with a concept of a language course without any assessment, and it was a rip-roaring success. At the end of the episode, there is a 20-question multiple choice assessment worth 100 marks. Be sure to pass.
