We used the Assessment Scale for Oral Language Teaching in School Settings (EVALOE) instrument, created and validated with the aim of assessing teachers' practices for promoting the development of language skills (speaking and listening) in their classrooms, as well as their own perceptions of their classroom practices through an interview. Research participants are 111 teachers and their student's groups from 36 schools around Catalonia. The study shows that the teachers themselves direct the communication in the classroom, that they often fail to clearly state the content of the oral language being studied, and that they do not systematically assess the learning outcomes of this content. In addition, they use few of the teaching strategies that have proved most useful in language learning. This paper stresses that these practices need to be revised so that teachers and students be aware of language teaching and to create environments that promote the development of students' language skills. cc-by (c) Gràcia, M. et al., 2021 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Ensenyament de la llengua Avaluació dels professors Investigació educativa Professors en pràctiques Language teaching Teacher evaluation Educational research Teachers in-service training Teaching practices for developing oral language skills in Catalan schools info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
