Real World Listening
Based on natural, extended conversations, monologues, and stories, this section develops active listening strategies. The Real World Listening activity has 3 steps: Prepare, Get the Main Ideas, and Respond to the Ideas.
1.In Prepare, the students are given interesting illustrations or photographs and several ideas that
will help them predict what the speakers are going to talk about. Sometimes the clues are ambiguous, so that students will consider the range of topics and ideas that may come up in the extract. It is important to emphasize to students that it doesn't matter if they guess exactly what the speakers will say. The point is for them to make predictions and test their predictions while they listen for the first time.
2.For Get the Main Ideas, the students are encouraged to focus on the underlying ideas while they listen to the extract for a second time. They listen to the extract and select ideas or write specific short phrases, based not only on what they hear, but also on what they can infer. This step directs students' attention to specific connections between different parts of the extract to help them infer what the speakers' intentions are. This section includes a variety of tasks, including fill in the chart, true or false, check the correct information, and fill in the blanks. In some units, an extra Oral Practice is presented in order to balance the percentage of listening and speaking practices.
