Abstract
IT Il presente contributo analizza la valutazione delle competenze linguistiche nella Didattica a Distanza (DaD) durante il periodo di emergenza sanitaria (Covid-19). Dall’analisi delle risposte a un questionario somministrato a docenti di lingue, emerge che la valutazione delle lingue straniere ha risentito notevolmente di questa nuova modalità di insegnamento e che alcune delle difficoltà valutative riscontrate in DaD possano essere in parte risolte assumendo una prospettiva di valutazione globale, che integri le diverse competenze e abilità degli apprendenti, attraverso attività task-based. Dopo aver illustrato le diverse soluzioni adottate dai docenti durante la DaD, vengono presentati i presupposti della valutazione task-based e si evidenziano i potenziali vantaggi dell’applicazione didattica delle scale di adeguatezza funzionale.

EN This article analyzes the evaluation of linguistic competence in distance learning during the crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on the analysis of responses to a questionnaire administered to language teachers, language teachers perceive that assessment of foreign language has regressed notably due to this new mode of teaching, but that some of the difficulties in assessing distance learning can be resolved, in part, by adopting an approach based on global assessment, which integrates various competencies and abilities of learners through task-based activities. After having illustrated the varying solutions adopted by teachers during this period of distance learning, suppositions about task-based learning are presented, followed by the potential advantages of the pedagogical application of the scale of functional adequacy.
Key words: LANGUAGE EDUCATION, TASK-BASED ASSESSMENT, FUNCTIONAL ADEQUACY, DISTANCE LEARNING
ES Esta contribución analiza la evaluación de las competencias lingüísticas en educación a distancia durante la crisis sanitaria provocada por la pandemia Covid-19. El análisis de las respuestas a un cuestionario administrado al profesorado de idiomas extranjeros muestra un retroceso notable en la evaluación de la lengua extranjera debido a esta nueva forma de enseñanza, aunque algunas de las dificultades en la evaluación de la educación a distancia pueden ser resueltas, en parte, mediante la adopción de un enfoque de evaluación global que integre las diversas competencias y habilidades del alumnado a través de actividades basadas en tareas. Después de haber ilustrado las distintas soluciones adoptadas por el profesorado durante este período de educación a distancia, se presentan las conjeturas sobre el aprendizaje basado en tareas así como las potenciales ventajas de la aplicación pedagógica de la escala de adecuación funcional.
