Abstract
The current study investigates the validity of a self- and peer-rating in a second language (L2) essay-writing test in Korea. The current study suggests that the Korean EFL students whose major is English education should conduct the rating tasks that they will encounter in the post-secondary school in their future career. Each of 104 Korean EFL learners at the intermediate level sequentially rated three sample essays, his/her own essay, and his/her partner’s essay after he/she was provided with the same benchmark as two experts would refer to. Each essay was rated on a 5-scale in terms of 4 writing features (organization, content, language use, and holistic feature). After students finished the ratings tasks, the students’ ratings were compared to expert ratings, using Multi-facet Rasch model. As a result, peer raters were so lenient that they showed unpredictable rating pattern. This research is dedicated to seek an innovative testing system in which trained students participate in a test as a complementary rater specifically in the EFL context.
