Washback and commutative testing possess direct impact on the
outcome quality of education. They have, therefore, been looked at
thoughtfully by specialists in the field of testing, measurement and
assessment in the last decade. The Arabic library
, however, lacks
materials on those two themes, which was the objective behind
publishing this paper in one of Arabic periodicals, with the goal to draw
the attention of stakeholders and policy makers to the influence of
washback and commutative testing possess on the curriculum. The
methodology of the current paper tends to focus on applied perspectives
with simplicity and illustration of models and examples.
