This paper will describe the extent to which the English-major students at a Saudi University viewed research assignments instrumental in sharpening their academic skills and promoting their academic achievements. Data were collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire and four focus-group interviews to find answers to the research questions. The results showed that the research assignments triggered no significant development in the level of the students’ learning for various reasons, such as institutional, interpersonal and to some extent cultural, among others. The students passed research assignments without adequate understanding of the research topics and acquisition of academic skills that resulted in their surface-level learning, indicating very strong negative washback. Therefore, suggestions are presented that undergraduate research assignments should obligate students to comprehend properly, analyse thoroughly, and apply with maximum dexterity what they learn. Also, once the assignments are evaluated (graded), students must receive adequate constructive feedback, accurately communicated, to help them know where they performed well and where there is room for further improvement. Thus, this study offers direct implications to teaching, learning, and research in higher education, and questions the current oversights in the area of formative assessment and course requirements among teaching academics.

research assignments as a formative assessment instrument to promote their self-learning and academic skills, and allow them to practice their creative repertoire to help them meet the pragmatic job-market demands of 21st century. This paper will describe the extent to which the English-major students at a Saudi University viewed research assignments instrumental in sharpening their academic skills and promoting their academic achievements. Data were collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire and four focus-group interviews to find answers to the research questions. The results showed that the research assignments triggered no significant development in the level of the students’ learning for various reasons, such as institutional, interpersonal and to some extent cultural, among others. The students passed research assignments without adequate understanding of the research topics and acquisition of academic skills that resulted in their surface-level learning, indicating very strong negative washback. Therefore, suggestions are presented that undergraduate research assignments should obligate students to comprehend properly, analyse thoroughly, and apply with maximum dexterity what they learn. Also, once the assignments are evaluated (graded), students must receive adequate constructive feedback, accurately communicated, to help them know where they performed well and where there is room for further improvement.

In contrast, formative assessment (FA) is employed to help students know the level of their learning during a course and allow them to increase the standard of their learning, through knowing their learning weaknesses, receiving informative feedback from their teachers and applying adequate learning strategies, in order to achieve the formulated goals of the course. A thorough examination of empirical published research in the field revealed that insightful studies in Saudi academic context are still awaited. Therefore, this exploratory study was an attempt to investigate consequential validity of formative assessment at a Saudi university. To examine the nature of the consequential validity, data were collected from 960 English-major students via a survey (of whom 465 responded), 18 classroom observations and 4 focus-group interviews. The data underwent both statistical and content analysis. The results showed that FA, in the context of this study, seriously lacks intended consequential validity—positive impact on students' learning. Besides, the data indicated a strong unintended consequential validity i.e., negative bearing of FA on what the students learnt, how they learnt it and the depth of their learning. Therefore, it is recommended that FA practices should be urgently revisited with expert understanding for the</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link

assignments are considered important parts since they contribute to students‟ deep learning. Although positive correlations were found in a number of studies (Sly, 1999; Sly & Rennie, 1999) between formative assessment and subsequent performance on summative assessment tasks, they were confined to computerised practice tests. The purpose of this qualitative case study is to investigate the experiences and perceptions of 14 tertiary undergraduate male English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students majoring in Linguistics and Literature, and enrolled in a Translation course. Specifically, the study aims to 1) identify the participants‟ experiences and perception about the benefits of formative feedback through summative lecture-based feedback in the form of weekly assignments, class discussions and students‟ presentations, 2) explore whether the participants believe that the course reflected the learning outcomes and the communication skills set out in the curriculum, and 3) elicit EFL students‟ views of the course and their assessment preferences. Data was collected through a questionnaire and unstructured interviews in order to receive further clarifications. The findings of the study revealed that the summative lecture-based assessment was effective in terms of the learning outcomes, which included improving the EFL students‟ translation interpersonal and intellectual abilities and the use of corpus concordances. The implications of these findings are discussed.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Assessment Preferences of Saudi Undergraduate EFL Students: Formative Feedback through Summative Lecture-Based Assessment","attachmentId":40811091,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/19729249/Assessment_Preferences_of_Saudi_Undergraduate_EFL_Students_Formative_Feedback_through_Summative_Lecture_Based_Assessment","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/19729249/Assessment_Preferences_of_Saudi_Undergraduate_EFL_Students_Formative_Feedback_through_Summative_Lecture_Based_Assessment"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="9" data-entity-id="91649020" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/91649020/Impact_of_Formative_Assessment_and_Feedback_on_Higher_Education">Impact of Formative Assessment and Feedback on Higher Education</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="98260720" href="https://salam.academia.edu/DrWaqarUnNisaFaizi">Dr. Waqar Un Nisa Faizi</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Global Social Sciences Review, 2018</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">This research study is based on the literature review through documentary analysis.
