Assessment methods, Teacher evaluation, Multimodal assessmentAbstract
The writing assessment plays a pivotal role in enhancing students’ writing proficiency, with teacher evaluation being one of the most authoritative and representative methods of assessment. Despite the growing importance of multimodal communication, there is limited research on integrating multimodal approaches with teacher evaluation. Thus, this study aims to investigate the developmental trends and potential value of multimodal assessment in writing instruction. Through a systematic review of pertinent literature and an analysis of current teacher evaluation research, this paper offers insights and recommendations for future research in writing assessment.
