| Description: |
Metacognition in Action. This teacher-friendly text provides a comprehensive treatment of concepts and knowledge relating to teaching L2 listening, with a particular emphasis on metacognition, and a practical pedagogical model for developing students L2 listening skills. |
| Synopsis: |
This reader-friendly text, firmly grounded in listening theories and supported by recent research findings, offers a comprehensive treatment of concepts and knowledge related to teaching second language (L2) listening, with a particular emphasis on metacognition. The metacognitive approach, aimed at developing learner listening in a holistic manner, is unique and groundbreaking. The book is focused on the language learner throughout; all theoretical perspectives, research insights, and pedagogical principles in the book are presented and discussed in relation to the learner. The pedagogical model-a combination of the tried-and-tested sequence of listening lessons and activities that show learners how to activate processes of skilled listeners - provides teachers with a sound framework for students' L2 listening development to take place inside and outside the classroom. The text includes many practical ideas for listening tasks that have been used successfully in various language learning contexts. |
