Consistency: The Reliability of Language Interventions

The references to the kinematic dimension of experience in the technical sphere yield constitutive concepts related to technical consistency and constancy. On the norm side, the design principle of developing an applied linguistic intervention that is reliable becomes prominent, and on the factual side the internal technical consistency of the actual designs. Conditions developed by technical agents are often required to be actualized uniformly in objective technical instruments such as language tests, syllabi, and policies. Finally, the endurance of subjective and objective technical facts in language instruction and testing in particular requires our theoretical attention.
