Efeito retroativo da avaliação no ensino/aprendizagem de línguas: o estado da arte

This article presents a state of the art review of the literature on the concept of washback in the context of language teaching. The concept, despite been frequently used in the international educational literature and in Applied Linguistics, is not well understood, as it does not seem to have been part of the research agenda for many years. After terminological and conceptual considerations, the article discusses recent empirical contributions, controversial aspects as well as those deserving more careful treatment in future research.
