  • Texas Educators Criticize TELPAS for English Learners’ Low Scores

    Posted by EFL CAFE on August 17, 2024 at 11:08 pm

    In a recent article by The Texas Tribune, the ongoing challenges faced by English learners in Texas are highlighted, focusing on their performance in the Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS). Since the test’s redesign in 2018, scores have plummeted, especially in speaking assessments. Educators blame the decline on the shift to automated scoring and flaws in the test’s design, which they argue don’t accurately reflect students’ abilities. These low scores hinder students’ progress and impact school district evaluations.
