  2. Selection of video clips Task design The existing format of Q & A Problem Defined

  3. Reciprocal vs. Non-reciprocal Listening (Anderson & Lynch, 1988) Skills required: --identification of spoken signals --segment the stream of speech into words. --grasp the syntax of the utterances --possess non-linguistic knowledge & skills Listening The Nature of Listening Comprehension

  4. Bottom-up Top-down (Nunan, 1989) Process of Listening Comprehension

  5. Segmenting speech into meaningful words/phrases Recognizing word classes Relating information to background knowledge Identifying rhetorical and functional intent Interpreting intonation & stress Identifying emotional/attitudinal tone Extracting gist/essential information (Yule, 1983, in Nunan, 1989). Successful Listening Involves…

  6. Answering:The listener answers questions about the message. Condensing: The listener outlines or takes notes on a listening text. Extending: The listener provides an ending to a story heard. Ways to Check Comprehension

  7. Duplicating: The listener translates the message into the native language or repeats it verbatim. Modeling: The listener orders a meal, for example, after listening to a model order. Conversing: The listener engages in a discourse that indicates appropriate comprehension. (Lund, 1990) Ways to Check Comprehension

  9. Authenticity Task continuity Real-world focus Language focus Learning focus Language practice Problem-solving ( Nunan, 1989, p.130) The Integrated Language Lesson

  10. Tolerate the unknown Listen for specific information (skim, scan, collect data) Listen for key words Listen for main ideas Guess the context, meaning Predict purpose, outcomes Associate information with background knowledge, schemata. (Brown, 2001) Developing Listening Strategies
