Different stakeholders' localized conceptualization of technology-enhanced language assessment literacy in higher educational context in Türkiye

This quantitative study investigates the localized conceptualization of Technology-Enhanced Language Assessment Literacy (TELAL) within the higher education context in Türkiye. Focused on a foundational university, the research explores TELAL perspectives across four crucial stakeholder groups: EFL language instructors, administrators, testing unit members, and EFL teacher trainers. Utilizing purposeful sampling and an adapted questionnaire, the study engages 139 participants. Methodologically, using SPSS, the research employs descriptive and inferential analyses, including Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) and radar graphics. The findings emphasize a general belief in the effectiveness of technology in language testing, accompanied by varying degrees of integration of online resources. It is noteworthy that the study reveals that participants' roles within the language assessment process do not significantly impact their proficiency across all dimensions of TELAL. The study reveals a significant need for training in web-based technologies for language assessment.
