Teaching Listening
Listening is the
language modality that is used most frequently. It has been estimated that
adults spend almost half their communication time listening, and students may
receive as much as 90% of their in-school information through listening to
instructors and to one another. Often, however, language learners do not
recognize the level of effort that goes into developing listening ability.
Far from
passively receiving and recording aural input, listeners actively involve
themselves in the interpretation of what they hear, bringing their own
background knowledge and linguistic knowledge to bear on the information
contained in the aural text. Not all listening is the same; casual greetings,
for example, require a different sort of listening capability than do academic
lectures. Language learning requires intentional listening that employs
strategies for identifying sounds and making meaning from them.
Listening
involves a sender (a person, radio, television), a message, and a receiver (the
listener). Listeners often must process messages as they come, even if they are
still processing what they have just heard, without backtracking or looking ahead.
In addition, listeners must cope with the sender's choice of vocabulary,
structure, and rate of delivery. The complexity of the listening process is
magnified in second language contexts, where the receiver also has incomplete
control of the language.
Given the
importance of listening in language learning and teaching, it is essential for
language teachers to help their students become effective listeners. In the
communicative approach to language teaching, this means modeling listening
strategies and providing listening practice in authentic situations: those that
learners are likely to encounter when they use the language outside the
classroom.
