Rasaq, I: Listening Comprehension for English as Second Lang

Reseña del editor:

Listening goes beyond just hearing words. It is an active procedure through which individual receives and constructs meaning from, and reacts to spoken and non-verbal information. The neglect listening has suffered makes a renewed global attention on the naturally first language skill noteworthy. Listening, to many, is undeserving of special facilitation for it to be mastered by students, especially at the higher level. This has led too many students to be poor achievers because of haphazard competence in the language of instruction, especially in the Nigeria context where the educational system almost wholly subsists on English language. This book gives explicit description of concepts on listening, constituents and inhibitions to listening, strategies on listening facilitation, and a pilot study experimenting assumptions described through metacognitive approach of note taking and organisers. The book would be of immense benefit to teachers, students, educational administrators, authors and publishers and researchers in English as a Second Language. It is hoped the book would facilitate general listening comprehension of students and English language learning as a whole.
