2. Catch specific details such as names, numbers, addresses,...

Divide the above listening aims into seperate replays. Get feedback after each task.

Do not overburden students. Unless, note-taking is the skill being practiced, reduce the amount of writing demanded, especially at lower levels.]]> 2017-05-20 03:22:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/172900726 jentran https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/172900967 Lead in
Pre-listening introduction to topic, discussion, looking at pictures, etc.

Pree-task work
Looking through worksheet, work on vocabulary, prediction, etc.

Set clear task

Play tape or students read text
They are not trying to understand everything. They only need enough to do the specific task

Feedback on task
Don't ask unfair questions - you set a clear task - have they done it? Don't ask extra questions.

Could they do the task?
YES - Do the next task or conclude (follow-on activities, review, what has been learned, etc.)

NO - They need to listen, read and review again.]]> 2017-05-20 03:31:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/172900967 jentran https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/172901488 - Choose the correct picture

Student think about the topic, raising a number of issues that will be discussed later on the recording to help them hear these things dicussed in the recording.

Predict the specific content
Student hypothesizes specific issues that may be raised.

Predict the structure
Students discuss the possible organizational structures for a phone-in to help learners recognize the content more easily.

Gist listening for overview
Learners get an overall impression of the content without worrying about small items or individual words.

Gist listening for attitudes
Learners interpret intonation, paralinguistic features (sighs, etc.)

More careful listening for complex meanings
By catching and interpreting smaller parts of the text, learners fine tune their understanding.

Listening to pick out specific small language details
This focused work (e.g on pronunciation) may raise learners awareness (e.g of weak forms) and thus help students to listen better in future.]]> 2017-05-22 02:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/173040875 jentran https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/173050580 - Working in small groups, learners listen to separate small parts f a longer recording, i.e each group hears different things.

- They then meet up, perharps in pairs, threes or fours, with people from groups that listened to other parts of the recording

- They report to each other on what they have heard and compare idea ideas and reach a conclusion or consensus or complete some specific task. The task might be simply construct a full picture of the recording's contents

Technique
You usually need a separate CD player or tape recorder for each group to listen on and the same number of separate recordings.]]> 2017-05-22 04:02:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/173050580 jentran https://padlet.com/jentran/l6gc2zuvb8gx/wish/173051428 Three or more slightly different viewpoints of a single event, each on a separate recording. The task is to work out what actually happened. Useful additional materials might be a location map or a room.

- Witnesses of a crime

- Finding where someone might have lost their purse
- Working out who exactly was at the meeting
- Working out the sequence of events
- A news story with addtional details in each separate section
