March 11th, 2022I'm currently reading an article about sports, and it's right that I found an article related to the world of entrepreneurship in the field of sports. In the article entitled "Sport and the New Culture of the 'Second Golden Age':
Amsterdam's Sporting Entrepreneurs in the 1880s and 1890s" although I've only read one page today. In page 1, it discusses business ideas in the field of sports which are very good especially for the elite group who likes sports and needs the necessary things to exercise. Moreover, it can increase targets local, national, and international consumers. This article uses light language and is easy to understand in one reading.

On the second page it discusses economic and sport scholar Wray Vamplew’s call to reconsider the role of entrepreneurs provides a good opportunity to reframe existing work and to provide a representation of early Dutch sporting entrepreneurs and products, be they not-for profit entrepreneurs providing access to new sports, financial entrepreneurs seeking to maximize profits, or an amalgam of various forms and products. On this second page there are some new vocabulary that I got.

I continue reading pages 3 and 4, in this page discuss about amongst researchers who have considered financial and entrepreneurial activities in sport, Jan Luitzen, Theo Bollerman, and Pascal Delheye have demonstrated how new products provided new opportunities to play. Major Walter Clopton Wingfield’s invention in Britain of a transportable lawn tennis box was important in promoting the development of tennis in the Netherlands, particularly amongst the wealthy. In addition, other sports products such as Dutch bicycles and cricket are also in great demand. From pages 3 and 4, I found a lot of new vocabulary.

I continue reading page 5. On page 5 it is about Amsterdam going through an amazing process of change. Since the mid-1860s, new developments in infrastructure and culture are often carried out by private entrepreneurs. In 1864, Paleis voor Volksvlijt opened as the location of a large industrial exhibition. One year later, the city's first major park, Vondelpark, was established as a space to provide all Amsterdammers with access to greenery and recreation. The new park was built under the initiative of C.P. van Eeghen. The North Sea Canal in 1876 provided Amsterdam with faster access to international trade routes and represented change guards in town. In this page I get a lot of new vocabulary again.

I continue on page 6, here discussing business opportunities in the field of sports. Given the central nature of consumerism and the new body culture, it is perhaps not surprising that sport and physical activity are becoming important areas for entrepreneurial development. In this chapter it is increasingly difficult to understand because of the new vocabulary and also the wider discussion.

I continue reading on page 7, on this page discussing a catalog in 1882. Customers can choose from 38 fully illustrated pages of goods, between 11 different croquet sets, three pages of tennis rackets, and a wide variety of cricket bats, balls and protective gear, soccer balls, ice skates, as well as bicycles and related equipment. New shopping techniques and international networks allow entrepreneurs to bring new sporting goods to market, but they are doing more than just selling, they are expanding their participation in sporting products through investments in sporting events and businesses. In this page I get new vocabulary and understanding.

I continue reading page 7, on page 7 it discusses the twentieth century, sport became more important for daily press, and in 1902, John Coucke became the first sports editor at De telegraph. Around this time, various sports publications appeared trying to take advantage of this aspect of the new mass culture. In The Hague, De Sportkroniek appeared in 1901, in Rotterdam, De Sport was first published in 1905, and De Revue der Sport became the first sports magazine to include photographs in the early 1900s. While sports publications in the late nineteenth century were mostly for insiders, in twentieth century they slowly became more mass-oriented, consumer audience. This page is getting harder to difficult.

I continue reading on page 8 which discusses Baron A.N.J.M. van Brienen van de Groote Lindt, who has close ties to the Dutch royal family, comes from the old elite but does not resist new trends in the Netherlands, particularly the sport and is also one of the patrons of Dutch cricket. Just like the previous chapter, many get new vocabulary.

A Classroom-based Assessment Method to Test Speaking Skills in English for Specific Purpose

I read an article entitled "A classroom-based assessment method to test speaking skills in English for Specific Purposes". This article presents and analyzes classroom-based assessment which can be described as a multimodal communicative approach to testing, organized as a continuous assessment and closely related to the course syllabus. What makes this approach different from the testing methods used previously in that the over- all scores do not depend on the final test but are obtained cumulatively. Further-Furthermore, the system is based on a combination of tasks, grading criteria and scales, which gives the teacher an overall view of the students' speaking ability. The language used in this article is quite easy to understand.

I continue page 2 which discusses aspects to consider when testing speaking skills in tourism, are whether the test should be based on general English or English for Specific Purposes (ESP). There is no consensus on this as these two points of view exemplify: Douglas (2001) defends ESP tests and states that content, test methods and some assessment criteria had to be derived from the target situation, while Davies (2001) argue that the ESP test has not been shown to be more valid than the general aptitude test, although for pragmatic reasons it is still worth working on the test.

I continue reading the article on page 3 which discusses the assessment of accurate and effective speaking skills with an assessment procedure involving four concepts: a communicative approach to assessment, assessment, multimodality, and continuous effects. Communicative language tests should aim to measure how real-life language tasks and activities can be performed. Results, such as for example Porter (1991) and Paltridge (1992) It is suggested that most examiners should include assignments that are as close as possible to those students encounter in real life. Communicative test must be contextualized, responding to the needs of the learner, and based on the use of language in context and for purposes relevant to the learner. Next, communicative quality testing has introduced the concept of quality in preference to quantitative ones. Finally, communicative tests should have a high level of content, construct and predictive validity.

I continue on the next page of "A classroom-based assessment method to test speaking skills in English for Specific Purposes" on this page is about the effect of the influence of test taker characteristics on performance, the validity of the rating scale involves four concepts: a communicative approach to testing, continuous assessment, multimodality, and the washback effect. language tests should aim to measure how real-life language tasks and activities can be performed. interviews and role-playing are two useful ways to test speaking skills because listening and speaking are fully integrated as in real life and can be assessed in oral presentations, Harris and McCann (1994) point out as an advantage that they are realistic and give the examiner time to assess performance.
