Resumo
O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar um breve estado da arte sobre a produção bibliográfica e a situação atual das pesquisas realizadas no campo da avaliação da aprendizagem do inglês como língua estrangeira na Colômbia. Para tanto, foi feita uma coleta e análise das principais produções acadêmicas do cenário colombiano, relacionadas aos princípios, definições e critérios de avaliação da aprendizagem do inglês como língua estrangeira, para identificar os temas mais relevantes nesta área. após esta análise, identificou-se que a produção acadêmica na Colômbia concentra a investigação em quatro grandes áreas: a alfabetização dos professores em termos de avaliação, a avaliação
das competências linguísticas, a avaliação alternativa e o uso da avaliação padronizada. Estes quatro grandes campos conduzem a uma grande necessidade: uma maior formação de professores que não só forneça os fundamentos teóricos da avaliação, mas também
ferramentas práticas e acessíveis para os diferentes contextos em que o Inglês como língua estrangeira é ensinado e avaliado.
Palavras-chave
alfabetização em avaliação, avaliação de competências linguísticas, avaliação alternativa, avaliação padronizada, EFL
