The principles the teaching of
listening
1. The
tape recorder is just as important as the tape
However good your tape is, it will be
useless if the tape recorder has a poor speaker or if the motor speed keeps
changing and the tape goes faster or slower. Another vital feature is a tape
couter that is easy to see. If you want to use your tapr recorder for music as
well as speech you may need a better machine.
2. Preparation
is vital
Teachers and students need to be
prepared for listening because of the special features we discussed above.
Teachers need to listen to the tape all the way through before they take it
into the class. Students need to be make ready to listen. Teacher will do their
best to get students engaged with the topic and the task so that they really
want to listen.
3. Once will not be
enough
There are almost no occasions when the
teacher will play a tape only once. Students will want to hear it again to pick
up the things they missed the first time. The first listening iis often used
hust to give students an idea of what the listening material sounds like. once
students have listened to atape two or three times, however, they will probably
not want to hear it too many times more.
4. Students
should be encouraged to respond to the content of a listening, not just to the
language
As with reading, the most important part of listeniong practice is to
draw out the meaning, what is intended, what impression it makes on the
students.
5. Different
listening stages demand different listening tasks.
Because there are different things we
want to do with a listening text, we need to set different tasks for different
listening stages.
6. Good
teachers exploit listening texts to the full
If teachers
ask students to invest time and emotional energy in a listening task nd if they
themselves have spent time choosing and preparing the listening then it makes
sense to use the tape for as many different applications as possible.
