Resum:
Teaching is a complex activity which demands a constant and systematic process and an essential vocation to overcome the obstacles that arise daily and due to the nature of the assessment process, in our case English as a foreign language (EFL), it seems logical to think that it conveys an educational posture and a practical and methodological approach by the teacher as well as a knowledge of the subject he is teaching, altogether with a syllabus that can answer the questions of what, how and when to teach and to assess? At the same time, if the teacher assumes a multivariate theoretical, practical and pragmatic posture towards evaluation through the appropriation of facts, concepts, principles, procedures, algorithms, etc. combined with the sensibility to let students express their perceptions, feelings and opinions about his learning process, the syllabus, and the methodology of the teacher from on a formative approach, an interesting combination arises that promotes personal and professional growth. With these principles in mind, the theoretical framework was based on the syllabus design, the assessment of the teaching-learning process, and the assessment of the English language learning. The methodology involved the improvement of the culture of formative assessment of the English Area in the Language Department of the Universidad de Los Andes Táchira through a diagnostic phase and a proposal to improve the syllabuses, induce teacher reflection and develop a formative approach to English assessment in the English classroom. It was concluded that the syllabus is the point of reference to the educational process and that formative assessment induces meaningful learning of the student and the teacher.
