Description

Innovative testing methods using documentaries, newsletters, posters, pamphlets, and comic strips refer to non-traditional approaches to testing that leverage various types of media to engage learners and assess their understanding of a given subject. These methods are becoming increasingly popular in both educational and professional contexts, as they offer a fresh and interactive way to measure knowledge and skills. Documentaries are a great tool for testing knowledge retention, as they offer a visual and narrative-based approach to education. Learners can watch a documentary and then answer questions based on what they saw and heard. This type of testing can be used in a variety of contexts, from history classes to corporate training programs. Newsletters are another effective tool for testing understanding. These can be tailored to specific subjects and distributed to learners either digitally or in print. The format of a newsletter allows for a mix of text, images, and interactive elements, making it an engaging way to assess knowledge and comprehension. Posters and pamphlets are both visually striking and easy to distribute, making them an excellent option for testing knowledge in public settings or within larger groups. These materials can be customized to feature specific subject matter and can include quizzes or other interactive elements to assess comprehension. Finally, comic strips can be a fun and interactive way to test understanding, particularly in educational settings. Comics can be created that feature characters learning about a particular subject, with questions at the end of each strip to test learners' comprehension. Innovative testing methods using documentaries, newsletters, posters, pamphlets, and comic strips offer a fresh and engaging way to assess learners' knowledge and skills. By incorporating different types of media into the testing process, educators and trainers can create a more dynamic and effective learning experience for their learners. Traditional methods of teaching and learning of English as a second language through the Deductive method focusses mainly on Form. There is a need to shift from the traditional methods to Communicative methods of teaching, learning and testing to enhance the performance of the L2 Learners in the use of English as a second language in real life. Chambers et al had stated that innovation is "any idea, practice or material artefact perceived to be new by the relevant unit of adoption" . Innovative methods of teaching and learning being inductive in nature are learner centric where the L2 learner feels at home with the process of learning. The L2 learner is involved in the teaching, learning process through the Communicative Language Teaching Method. The process of learning could be enhanced through alternate methods of testing. The study uses Documentaries, Newsletters, Posters, Pamphlets and Comic strips as innovations for the same. The L2 learners could experience a sense of discomfort with the 'Paper and Pencil' language test. Love Joy discussed in detail the history of English language tests and the need for an alternative testing method in the context of employing 'Portfolios' for testing Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing skills of the L2 learner. In a similar context the study uses DN2PCs as innovative teaching, learning and testing methods to enhance the acquisition of Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing Skills and its selective sub skills. There is also a transformation in the attitude and nature of the L2 learners towards the acquisition of English as a second language at the tertiary level.
