dc.description.abstract | Abstract Algerian higher education universities started to implement English as a Medium of Instruction in teaching their teaching curriculum as a strategy to internationalize higher education institutions. This exploratory research aims to identify the assessment challenges facing teachers and students in EMI settings by using a mixed-method approach. It combines a questionnaire conducted with thirty-five students and an interview carried out with four teachers from the Electronics faculty of M'sila University during the academic year 2024/2025. The obtained quantitative data were studied using Excel, and the qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that language proficiency is a major factor that affects students' performance during assessments. Specifically, they show that students are struggling with almost aspects of language, like vocabulary, grammar, speaking, and writing skills. They also demonstrate that the lack of teacher training in both language and assessment represents an obstacle in the assessment process. The participants of this study believe that they need more language training to be well-prepared to study and teach in English. Furthermore, they think that the integration of EMI should be a gradual process. Keywords | |
