With the increase of ICT in classrooms comes much data that can be used for evidence-based assessment. We focus on harnessing and interpreting this data to empower teachers in formative assessment. We describe e-assessment of English as a Second Language and illustrate how we move from data collected in classroom activities, through an automated assessment method, to visualising competence levels in an open learner model.
