B1 Writing | Cambridge Masterclass with practice testsThere are three possible task types in the B1 Preliminary Writing exam.This write-in student book focuses on each task type individually, explaining its characteristics and providing guidance on how to plan a response to an exemplar question. There are two example questions for each task type. For each task-type question, two responses from different students are provided. One response is very good and the other is less good, identifying areas in which the student could improve. There are detailed comments on each response, categorised by the assessment criteria (Content; Communicative Achievement; Organisation; Language), as well as a breakdown of the marks that each response could get in the exam.The four exam-styled practice tests included in this resource will allow the reader to consolidate their approach to the different types of writing task that can be assessed. Margaret Cooze holds an MA in Applied Linguistics and an MSc in English Language Teaching Management, and has worked in senior roles at Cambridge English Language Assessment and Cambridge Assessment International Education. She is the author of several ELT resources published by Cambridge University Press & Assessment.For more Cambridge English resources, visit www.prosperityeducation.net

This book 'Essays on Contemporary Psychometrics' provides an overview of contemporary psychometrics, the science devoted to the advancement of quantitative measurement practices in psychology, education and the social sciences. The volume consists of four parts, each having several chapters on cutting-edge work in the field. Part I, General Perspectives on Psychometrics, includes expert views on topics such as psychological models vs. measurement models, using tests in decision making, artificial intelligence, and psychometric network models. Part II, Factor Analysis and Classical Test Theory, the type of psychometrics that is still used most often in the social and behavioral sciences, includes state-of-the-art contributions on test-score reliability, change-score reliability, handling missing data in principal component analysis, test equating, and conditional standard errors of measurement. Part III, Item Response Theory, the leading form ofpsychometrics in modern educational measurement, includes discussions of sampling from many conditional distributions, transparent score reporting, nonparametric item response theory, and targeted testing. Part IV, New Psychometrics, discusses recently developed ideas beyond classical test theory and item response theory, including topics related to computer adaptive testing, response-time modelling, validity indices, diagnostic classification models, and the sparse latent class model for ordinal measurements.Together, these four parts provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art in psychometrics in educational measurement. They are a valuable source of information for graduate students who (intend to) study psychometrics and need an overview of the field, and for researchers interested in the current developments in the field. Chapters [3], [5], [8], [16] and [19] are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

A number of digital applications e.g. professional cameras, voice communication, video digitizers, data imaging and many more require low power, high speed, and high resolution analog to digital converters. But for high speed data communication systems with increased resolution and high sampling rates, different linear and nonlinear errors of ADCs come in picture which is a big challenge for design engineers to remove.A unique digital background calibration technique, a combination of signal dependent dithering with butterfly shuffler is proposed here for multi-bit, SHA-less 16-bit, 125 MS/s Pipelined ADC. The purpose of the research work was to integrate different stages of different sizes to achieve 16-bit error-free output at high sampling rate by using unique background calibration technique for SHA-less circuit. Because the achieved values of SNDR and SFDR are high with low power consumption, so this proposed ADC is suitable for high resolution applications like video communication. Without using sample and hold amplifier we saved power and reduced noise interference. Additional advantage of SHA removal is to use a smaller input sampling capacitor which increases ADC's drivability. A new timing diagram is also proposed here to resolve the sampling clock skew. The ultimate multi-bit front-end proposed here helped to save further power.The proposed comparator is able to avoid the kickback as compared to traditional comparators. For the initial multi-bit stage, a two-stage gain boosted amplifier is used to achieve high gain and to reduce the nonlinear gain errors. Because the non-idealities of Op-amp and capacitor mismatching errors, the ADC transfer function may achieve erroneous values by DNL errors, so the proposed technique is made capable to remove linear gain and offset errors and capacitor mismatching errors. Also the small signal linearity errors removed with the proposed architecture of 16-bit Pipelined ADC. Along with these advantages, high values of SNDR and SFDR has achieved, which is a top most indicator to distinguish the signal out from other noise and spurious frequencies.

As a predominant teaching paradigm, foreign language learning has increasingly been one of the crucial elements that leads to career accomplishments for students. Due to this, foreign language assessment has emerged as a major topic in the field of foreign language learning. The Handbook of Research on Perspectives in Foreign Language Assessment examines perspectives on language assessment through reflections on classroom applications and makes recommendations to strengthen quality language assessments by drawing on a variety of research methodologies. It also provides a foundation as to why foreign language assessment as a discipline should be refocused with caution, what sort of theoretical and practical implications should be in place for foreign language teachers, and in what ways it may be possible to provide futuristic perspectives on foreign language assessment for test developers and users involved in language assessment. Covering key topics such as testing, literacy, and language teaching, this major reference work is ideal for industry professionals, policymakers, administrators, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, preservice teachers, teacher educators, librarians, and students.

Implement evidence-based feedback practices that move learners forwardFeedback is essential to successful instruction and improved student performance, but learners often dread and dismiss feedback and its effectiveness can vary. Thus, sharing intentions, clarifying success criteria, knowing what type of feedback to provide and when, and activating students as owners of their learning are essential feedback functions.Instructional Feedback presents a comprehensive summary of the most recent research on instructional feedback and describes its successful implementation. With a focus on evidence-based approaches adapted to specific contexts, the authors use common classroom situations to demystify feedback and place it within a broad instructional context, along with definitions, characteristics, and precautions about its effect on students' emotions and behaviors. Inside you'll find: Coverage of all grades and concentrations, including math, language arts, music, art, and science Peer feedback, self-assessment, and subject-specific nuances Student and teacher examples of feedback and suggestions for improvementEngaging and concise, Instructional Feedback discusses why feedback is so powerful, how it is promising, and what it looks like in practice.
