• S2E9: EMI Part 2 – Assessments and Feedback EMI（英語授課）下集——評量與回饋

  In this follow-up to our discussion on English-Medium Instruction (EMI), we turn our attention to how teachers can design fair and effective assessments—and give meaningful feedback that helps students truly learn. Assessing students in an EMI context isn’t just about testing knowledge; it’s about supporting learners as they navigate both content and language challenges. In this episode, we talk about how to scaffold and stagger assessments, use balanced rubrics that separate content mastery from language use, and share expectations early to set students up for success. We also explore ways to give feedback that motivates, guides improvement, and respects students’ diverse language backgrounds. Whether you’re an EMI instructor, a program coordinator, or a student learning in English, this episode offers practical insights for making assessment and feedback a more supportive—and more human—part of the learning process. 💬 We’d love to hear from you! If you teach or study in an EMI setting, tell us about your experience with assessments and feedback. Comment, send us a DM, or email us—we might share your story in a future episode! 📂 Supplementary Material: https://forms.gle/PFE6GEkw4rhAxA3U9 在這一集節目中，我們延續前一集關於英語授課（EMI）的討論，聚焦於教師如何設計公平且有效的評量，以及如何提供真正幫助學生學習的回饋。 在 EMI 的教學情境中，評量不只是測驗知識而已——它同時也是幫助學生在內容理解與語言運用之間取得平衡的過程。本集節目將探討如何分階段、分層次地設計評量，如何使用兼顧「內容理解」與「語言表達」的雙重權重評分規準，並在課程初期就讓學生清楚知道評量標準。此外，我們也會談到如何提供具體而具建設性的回饋，幫助學生釐清弱點、持續改進，並尊重他們在語言背景上的多樣性。 無論你是一位 EMI 教師、課程協調者，或是一位正在以英語學習的學生，這一集都將帶給你實用的見解，讓「評量與回饋」成為學習歷程中更具支持性、更具人性化的一部分。 💬 我們很想聽聽你的想法！ 如果你正在 EMI 的環境中教學或學習，歡迎分享你在評量與回饋方面的經驗。留言、私訊或寄信給我們——你的故事也許會在未來的節目中出現！ 📂補充教材https://forms.gle/PFE6GEkw4rhAxA3U9 👉 Don’t forget to follow, rate, and review the podcast — and share this episode with a friend. 👉 別忘了 追蹤、評分並留下評論！也分享給朋友。 Follow us 追蹤我們 Instagram Threads Email us 私訊給我們: [email protected] Leave a comment and share your thoughts: https://open.firstory.me/user/cm7jif0jd000201xa0hhh5f4d/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting
