Abstract
Based on the belief that the classroom is an under-represented venue for research into teachers’ language assessment literacy (LAL), this chapter presents a qualitative case study of six non-subject-specific English for Academic Purposes (EAP) teachers in a language institute associated with a British university. It includes:
• A description of the setting for the case study including participating teachers
• The development and trialling of a schedule for observation of assessment activities
• Data analysis of the frequency of different assessment activities
• Teachers’ explanations of their rationale for using these assessment activities
• A discussion of the usefulness of the observation schedule and suggestions for further use

• The development and trialling of a schedule for observation of assessment activities
