Here is an excerpt of the syllabus:
"This course is intended to engage TESOL graduate students in exploring different theories, issues, procedures, methods and approaches related to assessments for English language learners. By introducing relevant theory and current practice in the area of assessment, this course is designed to integrate theory and practice in order to provide students with both conceptual understanding and practical experience with language assessment. The course will examine key concepts of assessment including learner identity and assessment, standards and standardized testing, listening, speaking, reading, writing, grammar and vocabulary assessments, dilemmas and biases associated with assessment decisions, and assessment as socially and culturally constructed experience"., 2010-2011
