Translation assessment is essential for teachers and learners for educational purposes despite its subjective nature. In this regard, this paper aims to explore the effective use of the Translation Quality Assessment model in educational settings, which is proposed by a research group of Korea University to evaluate Korean translations of French great novels. The two-tier assessment system attempts to evaluate pragmatic elements as well as the appropriateness of the lexical items and the grammatical structure. To examine the pedagogical value of the system, the first part of this paper is devoted to presenting specific methods for using the model in classroom. The assessment tool has a vital role to play in curriculum planning: the design of teaching/learning objectives, selection of resources and activities, and evaluation of students' performance. The second part analyzes the results of a survey of teachers and students who have implemented the model for evaluation of translation. The comments from the repondents confirm the critical value of the TQA system from a pedagogical perspective, and suggest various ways to use the system effectively in the classroom.
