I believe it was not effective listening regarding his verbal and nonverbal language. However, at times, we have a relationship with certain people who we "listen" to while multiple-tasking and we are able to comprehend.

One did a good job of being an effective listener but eventually he got frustrated with the others response and gave up on trying to listen.

It was ineffective listening because Sheldon didn't actually offer time to engage in solving Leonard's problem. He was more focused on his game with Steven Hawking. Hearing words is one thing, listening is another.

Why was this effective or ineffective listening? I think it falls in both categories. The first category can be seen as you shy timid student who is afraid to speak up and does not share a lot of the information he/she needs to share and is overwhelmed by the high achiever who wants to dominate the conversation.
