LAS (Language Assessment Scales)
Language Assessment Scales (LAS) are tools used to evaluate the language proficiency of learners. These scales measure various language skills, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing, to provide a comprehensive assessment of a learner's abilities. LAS can be used for placement, diagnostic, formative, and summative purposes. They help educators identify students' strengths and weaknesses, track progress, and make informed decisions about instruction and support. Effective use of LAS ensures that language instruction meets the needs of all learners.
